- 1 Tb. red wine vinegar
- 1/2 c. almonds, toasted & chopped
directions
- 1
Steam green beans until just tender. Remove from heat and immediately rinse under cold running water. Drain well.
- 2
Combine everything else except the lemon juice, vinegar and almonds in a large bowl.
- 3
Add the drained beans to the bowl. Toss until everything is well distributed. Cover tightly and let marinate at room temperature or refrigerated for at least 3 hours.

Stir in lemon juice and vinegar within about 10 minutes of serving. Serve cold or at room temperature, topped with almonds.
notes
Lt this marinate overnight for the best flavor. Just leave out the lemon juice and vinegar until before serving, so green beans retain their color.
