Green Bean, Walnut, and Feta Salad*

Serves: 6

Print this Recipe

Serving size: 1/2 cup

Make sure to toast the walnuts-the roasted flavor really enhances this salad.


   1/2 cup walnuts
   1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed and halved
   1 medium red onion, sliced into rings
   1/2 cup peeled, seeded and diced cucumbers
   1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
   1/4 cup olive oil
   1/4 cup white wine vinegar
   1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
   1 clove garlic, minced
   1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)


1. Toast the walnuts by placing them in a small baking dish in a 300-degree oven for 10 minutes until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and set aside.

2. Cook the green beans by placing them in a pot of boiling water and then turning off the heat. Do not allow the green beans to boil in the water. Immediately drain and run cool water over the beans to stop the cooking process. This method will help retain their green color and crunchy texture.

3. In a salad bowl, combine the green beans with the walnuts, red onion rings, cucumber and feta cheese. Combine all the dressing ingredients together and toss with the vegetables. Chill 2 to 3 hours before serving.
