It’s so easy, and gets all kinds of compliments. Delicious and pretty in a wide, shallow serving dish.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed (cut off both ends)
  • 6 garlic cloves, whole
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Cooks beans and garlic cloves in boiling salted water to cover for 5 minutes or until crispy-tender (al dente); drain.
  2. Transfer beans to serving dish.
  3. Remove garlic cloves and mince. (I crushed them with the garlic press into the dressing mixture.)
  4. Whisk together oil, vinegar, minced garlic, salt and pepper.
  5. Drizzle over green beans and toss gently.
  6. It doesn't matter if you serve them hot, warm or cold. They make a good salad-y type dish.
