GREEN BEAN, FETA, WALNUT AND MINT SALAD image

Categories     Vegetable

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds green beans, cut in half
1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
1 cup diced red onion
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
Dressing:
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves, chopped fine
1/4 cup white wine vinegar or tarragon vinegar
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Bring 2 quarts salted water to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the green beans and cook them until they are crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain the beans and plunge them immediately into ice water to stop their cooking. Drain them again and pat them dry. 2. Transfer the beans to a shallow serving bowl. Sprinkle with the walnuts, onion, and feta. Chill well. 3. Make the dressing: Combine the oil, mint, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a lidded jar and shake to blend. Pour the dressing over the bean mixture, toss thoroughly, and serve.

This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

The dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste. I would recommend using less lemon juice.

This salad is a bit too oily for my taste. I would recommend using less olive oil in the dressing.

I'm not a big fan of mint, so I omitted it from the dressing. The salad was still very flavorful.
