Green beans with feta and walnuts

Green bean salad with feta and walnuts

A lovely little salad that I had the other day with pumpkin and sausage salad. 

Green bean and feta salad ingredients

• 200g green beans, trimmed
• Small handful mint, finely chopped
• Juice half a lemon
• Handful walnut pieces, lightly toasted
• Small handful feta, crumbled
• Extra virgin olive oil

How to make green bean and feta salad

1. Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. The beans should still be very crunchy.
2. Drain the beans and toss with the oil and lemon juice immediately. You could use walnut oil instead of olive oil, to give even more of a nutty taste.
3. Lie the beans in a shallow serving dish.
4. Scatter over the mint, crumbled feta and walnut pieces.
