Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 pounds thin green beans, trimmed
• 1 shallot, minced
• 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 3 ounces mixed baby greens
• 1 pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in 1/2
• 1/4 cup fresh basil chiffonade
• 1/4 cup shelled, salted and roasted pistachios
• 6 ounces crumbled feta cheese

Directions:

Blanch green beans in a large pot of salted water until bright green and crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Shock beans in a large bowl of ice water. Drain and dry well.

In a small bowl, whisk together the shallot, vinegar, and olive oil. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

Spread baby greens out onto a large platter, top with the cherry tomatoes, green beans, and basil.

Drizzle vinaigrette over the vegetables and sprinkle with pistachios and crumbled feta.
