Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Spanish Green Bean Salad Delight.
Step 1
Start by filling a saucepan with water, making sure it’s just below the bottom of your steamer insert, and bring it to a lively boil.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling, add the fresh green beans to the steamer basket, cover it up, and let them steam for about 6 to 7 minutes until they’re perfectly crisp-tender.
Step 3
After steaming, drain the green beans and transfer them to a mixing bowl, where they’ll await their flavorful dressing.
Step 4
In a small jar, combine a splash of olive oil, some diced roasted red peppers, minced red onion, balsamic vinegar, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, chopped parsley, a pinch of brown sugar, and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper.
Step 5
Seal the jar tightly and give it a good shake until all the ingredients blend together into a delicious dressing.
Step 6
Now, pour this vibrant dressing over your steamed green beans and toss everything together until the beans are beautifully coated.
Step 7
For the best flavor experience, pop the salad in the fridge for at least 2 hours, allowing the ingredients to mingle and develop their deliciousness.
Step 8
When you’re ready to serve, take it out about an hour beforehand to let it come to room temperature.
Step 9
Finally, present your salad over a bed of crisp shredded lettuce for a delightful crunch.
