Wash the green beans and select ones that are about the same size.

Trim the ends of the green beans by lining them up and cutting one end, then the other.

Bring water to a boil in a large pot.

Add a little salt to the boiling water and put the green beans in.

Cook the green beans for about 5 minutes until they are crisp-tender.

Cook the beans for an additional 2 minutes for a softer texture.

Turn off the heat and drain the beans.

In a big bowl, add apple cider vinegar, vegetable oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, mustard, and a little sugar, then whisk to blend.

Add the drained warm beans and sliced onions to the bowl and toss together well.

Add the chopped parsley and taste, adjusting salt if necessary.

Let the salad sit for at least half an hour for better flavor before serving.
