French beans have always been my favorite type of beans and well, who doesn’t like tomatoes? It’s truly the best of both worlds when the beans’ crunchiness combines with the juices from the tomatoes; it’s like a party for your taste buds! And the added kick from the home-made vinaigrette does a wonderful job pulling all of the flavors together leaving a very satisfied tummy!
