Steps:
- Wash and remove the ends from beans. Heat a pot of salt water to boiling. Place beans in boiling water and cook uncovered for 5 minutes. Cover and cook for no longer than 10 minutes more, until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse under cold water just to stop the cooking. Beans should remain slightly warm to absorb the dressing. Place the beans in a large bowl with the olives, onions, and tomato wedges. While the beans are cooking, prepare the vinaigrette. Place all of the ingredients in a blender, and process until oil and vinegar are incorporated. Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetables in the bowl, and toss to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Just prior to serving, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and toss.
