Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.

- Place the foil on the grill cook, tossing the beans occasionally, until lightly charred and tender, about 15 minutes.
- While the beans grill, cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crisp; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings and then stir the mustard, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the skillet until combined.
- Transfer the beans to a servings bowl and pour the warm vinaigrette over top. Toss well, scatter with the cooked bacon and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper.

GREEN BEAN SALAD IN TANGY VINAIGRETTE
Just made up this recipe today to use up some ambelofasoula (I've never seen this bean in Canada and don't know if it has an English name). All kinds of green beans would be good in this refreshing salad, I expect. Steaming time is approximate as everyone likes their beans softer/crispier. 8 minutes is what worked for us.

GREEN BEANS WITH SMOKEY BACON VINAIGRETTE
Sweet bacon vinaigrette lovingly caressing green beans. Discovered this combination during Thanksgiving dinner when a bottle of bacon vinaigrette was dropped onto my plate. The result was delicious. I like to add a bit of Cheddar. Bacon, green beans, and Cheddar just goes really well together for me.
