Haricot Verts With Warm Bacon Vinaigrette

Don’t be afraid of the term Haricot Verts, they are fresh French green beans. If you can’t find them, substitute for regular green beans and just cook a little longer.

Haricot Verts With Warm Bacon Vinaigrette


Ingredients:
  • 2 lbs. haricots verts, trimmed
  • 3 slices bacon, chopped
  • ¾ cup thinly sliced shallots

Combine shallots and bacon in a large bowl. Add beans to pan; cook 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Add beans, oil, vinegar and salt to bacon mixture; toss to combine. Sprinkle with walnuts and parsley. Serves 8.
