Garden Beans and Things

Beans are high and tomatoes are laden. Time to tip and tail.

GREEN BEAN TOMATO SALAD

12 oz. freshly picked green beans, tipped and tailed

1 onion, sliced

4 t. apple cider vinegar

1 garlic clove

A couple tomatoes, cored and sliced

3 T. olive oil

Salt

Boil water. While water is heating, quick pickle the sliced onion by pouring some warm water over them in a colander and then placing into the vinegar. Let sit.

Once water is boiling, add beans. Cook only until they brighten in color. No one likes soggy cooked veg. Maybe 3-4 minutes. Drain. Put drained verdant strands into a big bowl.

Add the onions and all their vinegar. Next add the oil. Then the tomatoes and add salt to taste. Stir a little to let everyone get to know each other. Serve.
