Ingredients

    1lb green beans, washed, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
    10 bag frozen shelled edamame (green soy beans)
    15 oz can black beans
    3 Tlb Canola Oil
    3 Tlb rice wine vinegar
    1/4 c 100% fruit peach preserves
    2 green onions, sliced
    1 tsp sugar
    1 tsp freshly grated ginger, optional
    salt to taste

Directions

Place green beans and frozen edamame in a steamer basket and steam for 4 minutes. (I don't have a steamer, so I put them in a collander over boiling water, and I cooked them much longer than 4 minutes).
Turn beans into bowl and refrigerate to cool for 15 minutes or longer.
In a small bowl, whisk together oil, sugar, vinegar, preserves and ginger (if using).
Add scallions and black beans to other beans, drizzle dressing over, toss lightly and salt if desired.
