This cold tomato and green bean salad is made with feta cheese. It’s one of my favorite salads for a picnic or a barbeque. I make this amount for two to three people, but you can easily double or quadruple the recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 medium shallot, minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 2 ounces crumbled feta cheese
Directions
Step 1
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add beans and cook until soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well.
Step 2
Whisk oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Stir in parsley, shallot, and garlic.
Step 3
Combine beans and tomatoes in a large bowl. Pour dressing over top and mix to combine. Stir in feta. Allow to sit for 20 minutes before serving.
