Feta and white beans provide plenty of protein in this main-course salad. If you don't have white-wine vinegar, you can substitute red-wine or balsamic vinegar.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 ounces green beans, trimmed and halved
2 navel oranges
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 1/2 cups crumbled feta (6 ounces)
1 head romaine lettuce (about 1 1/2 pounds), halved and roughly chopped
1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 can (15 ounces) white beans, rinsed and drained

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan of boiling salted water, cook green beans until crisp-tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain green beans, and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice off both ends of each orange. Cut off peel, following the curve of the fruit. Halve fruit from top to bottom, and thinly slice each half crosswise.
  • In a bowl, whisk together oil and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Add feta, oranges, lettuce, onion, beans, and green beans. Toss to combine.
