GREEN & YELLOW BEAN SALAD WITH CHERRY TOMATOES
Adapted from Bon Appétit magazine, June 2000. They describe this dish as "colourful, refreshing and delicious," and I agree on all counts. How you trim the beans is completely up to you, but I like to keep them their full length with their little curlicue tails adding a whimsical air to the dish.

Steps:
- Cook the beans in a large pot of boiling water with a good tablespoon of salt until tender crisp (4 to 5 minutes; best to check at 4 minutes!). Drain, rinse with cold water and immerse in an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. I put the colander into a very large bowl of ice water for this, so I don't have to pick ice cubes out of the beans. As soon as they're cooled through, drain thoroughly and pat them dry (rolling them in a tea towel works well, too). (If you don't plan to use them right away, you can dry them, wrap them in a tea towel, seal in a container and store in the refrigerator for up to one day.)
- Combine the oil and vinegar (plus sugar, if using) in the bottom of a large serving bowl, and toss in the shallots and basil. Whisk well with a fork and add the tomatoes as you halve them. Grind in pepper to taste, stir again and then add the beans. Toss everything together until all the beans are coated with the dressing and the tomatoes, basil and shallots are happily intermingled among the beans. Serve right away, or cover and chill for at least an hour and up to 4 hours, tossing occasionally. Serve the salad cold or at room temperature.
GREEN BEAN-CHERRY TOMATO SALAD
My grandmother made a cold green bean salad with potatoes for every family barbecue. Now I bring my own version of the recipe to parties. With added color and taste from the cherry tomatoes, this classic favorite is even better. -Angela Lemoine, Howell, New Jersey

GREEN BEAN AND TOMATO SALAD
This simple summer salad pairs beautifully with practically any grilled meat or fish, and it's quite easy to make. Just blanch the green beans until crisp tender, then toss with wedges of ripe tomato and a bright vinaigrette of Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, garlic, shallots and olive oil. A shower of chopped fresh basil across the top finishes it off.

TOMATO-GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH CHICKPEAS, FETA AND DILL
This is a perfect salad for summer, when the market is chockablock with great produce. Use whatever tomatoes are sweetest, and feel free to add yellow wax beans or romano beans in addition to green beans. If your market has fresh shelling beans, use those instead of chickpeas. Plan ahead to soak dried chickpeas overnight. With a soak, they only take an hour to cook, and taste better than canned ones.

CHERRY TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN SALAD
This simple salad makes a bright, tangy companion to grilled meat or fish. Marinating the red onions and garlic in the vinaigrette for 15 minutes not only diffuses their flavor but also softens their bite. This salad travels well and would be an excellent choice for a potluck or picnic. It's also supremely versatile, and can be dressed up with any soft herb like basil, tarragon or mint, and chile, in almost any form.
