One of my favorite ways to enjoy green beans–in a chilled green bean salad recipe! The delicious flavors of these balsamic green beans made with black olives, scallions and eggs complement any meal or holiday potluck.
INGREDIENTS
24 oz 6 cups string beans beans, ends trimmed
2.25 ounce can sliced black olives, drained (check labels for Whole30)
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 medium scallions, chopped
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
fresh black pepper, to taste
5 hard boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
INSTRUCTIONS
Place green beans in a large pot and cover with water, about 6 cups. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook until tender crisp, about 6 minutes (don’t overcook or they will get mushy).
Drain and rinse under cold water when done to prevent them from overcooking, drain.
In a large bowl, combine balsamic, oil, salt and pepper. Toss in the green beans, scallions and olives.
Mix well and top with sliced eggs.
Refrigerate and serve chilled or room temperature.
