   NOTE: Can be served as a hot side dish. Or refrigerate and serve as a cold salad. I really like to make it the day before, refrigerate and serve the next day. It really allows the flavors to blend.-----I have also used a mix of green beans and wax beans. This worked very well and made for a pretty presentation.
