Ingredients
- 400 grams green beans

- 1 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a generous pinch of salt.
Step 2
Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them in half, if desired, for easier eating.
Step 3
Blanch the green beans in the boiling water for 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still crisp. Drain and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain and set aside.
Step 4
Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the red onion thinly. Mince the garlic and finely chop the parsley.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the vinaigrette.
Step 6
Add the cooled green beans, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion to the bowl with the vinaigrette. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the salad and gently toss again to combine.
Step 8
Taste and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
Step 9
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy!
