Combine the marinade ingredients in a large 4-cup capacity measuring glass. Whisk until combined.
In a large bowl, or lidded container, place the beans and onions. Pour the dressing over the beans and stir gently to coat.
Chill in the fridge for at least 12 hours before serving for the best taste.

I like using one scallion instead of the onion in this recipe, however the original recipe is simply diced white or yellow onion
