100g feta cheese (or vegetarian alternative), drained
2 tbsp chopped or shredded mint leaves
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
50g bag mixed salad leaf
10 cherry tomatoes , halved
1 tsp lemon juice

Steps:

Bring a small pan of water to the boil. Add the beans, return to the boil and cook for 4 mins. Drain in a colander under running water until cold. Press each bean out of its skin into a bowl.
Crumble over the feta and scatter over the mint leaves. Season with a good grind of black pepper and drizzle with 2 tsp of the oil. Toss together.
