Stir first 8 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Season dressing

Return water to boil. Add pasta and cook until just tender but still
firm to bite, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Drain. Rinse pasta
under cold water. Drain well.

Combine green beans, pasta, carrots, green onions, and dressing in
large bowl. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made
6 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)
