Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces green beans
8 ounces yellow wax beans
4 ounces crumbled blue cheese (or goat cheese)
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup candied walnuts
1 tablespoon minced chives
6 slices cooked turkey bacon, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
1 shallot, minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the salad: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Blanch the green beans until crisp-tender. Immediately transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking process. Repeat with the wax beans. Drain the blanched beans thoroughly.
  • In a large bowl, combine the green beans, wax beans, blue cheese, cranberries, walnuts, chives and bacon.
  • For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon and vinegar until emulsified. Add the shallots. Whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the dressing to the salad and toss to coat. Add a few turns of freshly ground black pepper, if desired.
