Fresh Green Bean Salad

"I boiled the beans for about 3 minutes so they would still be crisp and have that gorgeous bright green color that I love. You can of course cook them to suit your family’s liking as far as texture goes. I plunged the green beans into cold water to stop the cooking process. After that, it’s just a matter of making the dressing. The dressing is a simple homemade vinaigrette. I love homemade dressings, they’re so easy to tweak to our liking. And we love to tweak don’t we, it’s how we make a recipe ours. An addition of feta cheese could only be a plus. Adding vine ripened tomatoes (be still my heart) would be AMAZING! "
