Shouldn’t this have green beans listed in the ingredients? I think the “pound of beef consume” might be a mistake. I plan to make this so I’ll rate it later. Okay I made this recipe tonight and it’s definitely a keeper and worth 5 stars. Hubby gave it 2 thumbs up. I used a pound of fresh green beans which I assumed that what the recipe meant when it said “pound of beef consume”.

I love this! I used “Our Favorite Balsamic Vinaigrette” recipe (also from this site) for the dressing. My only suggestion would be to add a bit at a time, until the salad is dressed to your liking before just adding the entire amount. You can always add more if you like. I made this early in the day, and will take it out to come to room temperature before serving. Great side dish!
