This Green Bean and Feta Salad is the perfect go-to when you need a fresh, healthy side or light main in a pinch. Featuring crisp green beans, creamy feta, tangy red onions, and crunchy almonds, it’s tossed in a zesty lemon dressing and finished with fresh dill for brightness.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound green beans, trimmed
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, lightly toasted
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans and blanch for 2–3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  2. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and pat dry.
  3. Slice red onion thinly; soak in water for 10 minutes if you prefer a milder taste, then drain.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
  5. In a large bowl, combine green beans, red onion, feta, dill, and almonds.
  6. Drizzle dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.
  7. Let the salad sit for 15–30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then serve.
