Directions
Preheat broiler.
Cut bell pepper in half lengthwise, and discard the seeds and membranes.
Place bell pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet; flatten with hand.
Broil pepper halves 10 minutes or until blackened.
Place in a paper bag, and seal.
Let stand 15 minutes. Peel and cut into strips.
Bring 2 quarts water and 2 teaspoons salt to a boil in a large saucepan.
Add beans; cook 4 minutes or until beans are crisp-tender, or you can steam beans tossed with 1 teaspoon salt before steaming.
Drain; place in a large bowl.
Add bell pepper strips, tomatoes, onions, and parsley; toss to combine.
Combine remaining ½ teaspoon of salt, cider vinegar, and remaining ingredients except goat cheese, stirring with a whisk.
Drizzle over salad; toss gently to combine.
Sprinkle with goat cheese.
Serve.
