I made this salad for a picnic and it was a big hit! It's so easy to transport and it held up well in the heat.

This salad was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a balsamic vinegar that was too strong. Next time I'll use a milder vinegar.

I'm not usually a fan of green beans, but this salad changed my mind. The balsamic vinegar and shallots really elevate the flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I always have a few extra after I make a green bean casserole, and this is a great way to use them up.
