Expert Tips

Be sure to peel the cucumbers, even if their skin is relatively thin. By exposing all of the cucumber’s flesh to the dressing, it soaks up more flavor.

Two cups of frozen cut green beans, cooked briefly and rinsed under cool water, will save you the time of chopping and cooking fresh beans.

My husband and I loved this! My husband wasn't too sure about it but he couldn't keep his spoon out of the bowl when it was time for supper. Definitely a keeper!

I've made this for company when we grill out several times, and everyone has really liked it. Great recipe and much better than traditional bean salad.
