Suzanne Somers' Green Beans and Vinaigrette image

Green Beans with a garlic vinaigrette. Can serve this hot or cold and the vinaigrette can be used over other vegetables or as a salad dressing. I find that if you make the vinaigrette in advance, it allows the flavors to blend and infuse the oil. I have added Parmesan cheese, Emeril's Essence spice mix and even some splenda and honey. My kids loved it. You could use the dressing as a base and just add ingredients to taste (Dijon and Worcestershire work well too).
