GREEN BEAN AND TOMATO SALAD
This simple summer salad pairs beautifully with practically any grilled meat or fish, and it's quite easy to make. Just blanch the green beans until crisp tender, then toss with wedges of ripe tomato and a bright vinaigrette of Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, garlic, shallots and olive oil. A shower of chopped fresh basil across the top finishes it off.

- To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain the green beans and pat them dry.
- To make the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper.
- Add the blanched green beans, tomatoes, red onion, feta cheese, and almonds to a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Serve immediately.
- For a more flavorful salad, marinate the green beans in the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- This salad can be served as a side dish or main course. It is also a great option for a picnic or potluck.
