Green Bean Feta Salad

shared by Patty H. (whose friend Joan shared it with her)


Ingredients:

1 lb. frozen or fresh green beans (steam slightly to semi-crisp)
1-2 fresh zucchini, sliced (depending on size)
2-3 tomatoes, diced (depending on size)
red or yellow pepper, seeded and sliced in strips
1/4 of a red onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
4 oz. feta cheese (I only used half the container, not the full 4 oz.)

Dressing

4 T. olive oil
1 T. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper (I used coarse ground )
1/2 tsp. dried dill ( can use more depending on your taste for dill)

Directions:

1.    Fix vegetables as directed. Amounts of each can vary but the final salad makes a large bowl full.

2.    You can use any combination of fresh veggies.

3.    Slicing them in different  ways, i.e. slicing, dicing adds to the presentation of the salad.)

4.    Put dressing ingredients in a small jar and shake to combine.  Pour over vegetables.

5.    Chill in the refrigerator before serving.
