This salad combines the crunch of green beans with the zesty flavor of Italian dressing and the sharpness of fresh onion. It’s a perfect side dish for picnics, barbecues, or a light summer meal.'}
- Whenever possible, use fresh green beans instead of canned ones for a crisper texture. Blanch them quickly in boiling water and then plunge them into ice water to retain their vibrant color and crunch.
- If you prefer a homemade touch, consider making your own Italian dressing. You can adjust the ingredients to suit your taste, adding more herbs, garlic, or a splash of lemon juice for extra zing.
- For better flavor, let the salad sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. This allows the beans to absorb the dressing and the flavors to meld together.
- Enhance the salad by adding extra veggies such as cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, or olives for more color and texture.
- For a more attractive presentation, consider garnishing with fresh herbs like parsley or basil, or even some grated Parmesan cheese.
