This refreshing salad combines crisp green beans and juicy cherry tomatoes with a tangy vinaigrette.
Ingredients
Salt and pepper - To taste
Honey - 1 teaspoon
Dijon mustard - 1 teaspoon
Red wine vinegar - 1 tablespoon
Extra virgin olive oil - 2 tablespoons
Fresh basil - 1/4 cup, chopped
Feta cheese - 1/4 cup, crumbled
Red onion - 1/4 cup, thinly sliced
Cherry tomatoes - 1 cup, halved
Green beans - 1 pound, trimmed
Instructions
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
In a large bowl, combine the blanched green beans, cherry tomatoes, red onion, feta cheese, and fresh basil.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss to coat evenly.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
