- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey

Directions
Step 1
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Wash and trim the green beans, then blanch them in the boiling water for 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
Step 2
Rinse and drain the canned black-eyed peas thoroughly. Set aside.
Step 3
Cut the cherry tomatoes in halves, and thinly slice the red onion. Finely chop the parsley.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blanched green beans, black-eyed peas, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and parsley.
Step 6
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss everything together gently to ensure even coating.
Step 7
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Garnish with extra parsley before serving, if desired.
