   3      pounds        green beans -- trimmed, cut into
                        - 2-inch pieces
   3      tablespoons   country-style dijon mustard
     1/4  cup           sherry wine vinegar
     2/3  cup           olive oil
     1/3  cup           shallots -- minced
   2                    cherry tomatoes -- halved

Cook beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender,
about 5 minutes.  Drain.  Refresh under cold water; drain well.
Transfer to large bowl.

Combine mustard and vinegar in small bowl.  Gradually whisk oil.  Mix
in shallots.  (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.  Cover beans and dressing
separately.  Refrigerate beans; let dressing stand at room
temperature.)

Mix dressing and tomatoes into beans.  Season to taste with salt and
pepper.
