Directions
Toast the pine nuts for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
While the nuts are toasting, cook the beans until just tender.
Combine the shallots or scallions, vinegar, oil, and herb of your choice in a medium bowl.
Drain the beans thoroughly and immediately add them to the bowl, tossing them with the dressing. Stir in the toasted pine nuts. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm, or chill for 20 minutes and then serve.
