Ingredients
Salt and pepper - To taste
Dijon mustard - 1 teaspoon
Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
Lemon juice - 2 tablespoons

Instructions
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked green beans, sliced zucchini, red onion, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, and chopped basil.
