— Constant Cookbook

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs green beans, ends removed and cut in half
  • 1 cup red onion, diced
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped and toasted
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup white tine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

  • Break the end of the green beans and cut them all in half. Cook them in boiling water for 4 minutes, drain and immerse them in ice cold water to stop the cooking and keep them slightly crisp. Drain the water and pat the beans dry with a paper towel.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar dill, garlic, salt and pepper and toss with the beans in a large bowl. Add in three fourths of the feta, red onion, and pecans and toss. Then top with remaining onion, feta and pecans.
