When I was growing up, my mom always garnished lightly cooked green beans with fresh mint. It’s a slightly unusual, but totally delicious flavor combination. The recipe below uses that perfect pairing and adds all the elements of a crisp, fresh salad.
Combined with nutty walnuts, salty crumbled Feta cheese, and the bite of red onion, green beans and mint become the star of this hearty salad. Pro tip: Soak your red onion slices in cold water for about 10 minutes, then drain them, pat them dry, and add them to your salad. This takes the edge off the raw onion, which I like.
