   5                    radishes -- unpeeled trimmed
                        -- coarsely chopped
     1/2  cup           olive oil
   2      tablespoons   sherry wine vinegar
   1      tablespoon    honey mustard
     1/2  teaspoon      minced garlic
   1 1/2  pounds        slender green beans -- trimmed
   4      cups          mixed greens -- see *
   1                    red onion -- thinly sliced
   2      large         radishes -- sliced paper-thin
                        -- (optional)

* mixed greens (such as red leaf lettuce and baby spinach), torn into
bite-size pieces

Place 5 radishes in processor.  Add oil, vinegar, mustard and garlic;
process until thick dressing forms.  Season with salt and pepper. 
Transfer to small bowl.  (Can be made 1 day ahead.  Cover; chill. 
Bring just to room temperature before using.)

Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water until just
crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.  Drain beans and rinse under cold
water.  Drain.  Pat dry with paper towels.  Wrap in kitchen towels
and place in plastic bag.  Chill until cold, at least 1 hour and up
to 1 day.

Place beans, mixed greens and onion in large bowl.  Toss with enough
dressing to coat.  Season with salt and pepper.  Garnish with sliced
radishes, if desired.
