Ingredients: 1 lb green beans, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces. 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved. 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced. 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped. 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar. 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. In a large bowl, combine the blanched green beans, cherry tomatoes, red onion, parsley, and toasted almonds. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to make the dressing. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until well coated.
