Ingredients

  • 1 pound green beans cut into 2-3" pieces
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic minced
  • teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes sliced in half
  • 1/4 cup shallots thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan
  • 1/4 cup basil sliced
  • 1/4 cup slivered almonds

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath. Drop green beans in the boiling water, and blanch for 3-5 minutes--you'll know they're done once their color becomes more vibrant and they've softened slightly. Transfer immediately to the ice bath, then drain the water and allow them to dry completely.
  • Meanwhile make the dressing by whisking together the mustard, vinegar, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Place the green beans, tomatoes, shallots, and parmesan in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing and toss to combine. Sprinkle with basil and almonds before serving, and enjoy!
