TOMATO-GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH CHICKPEAS, FETA AND DILL



Tomato-Green Bean Salad With Chickpeas, Feta and Dill image

This is a perfect salad for summer, when the market is chockablock with great produce. Use whatever tomatoes are sweetest, and feel free to add yellow wax beans or romano beans in addition to green beans. If your market has fresh shelling beans, use those instead of chickpeas. Plan ahead to soak dried chickpeas overnight. With a soak, they only take an hour to cook, and taste better than canned ones.

TOMATO SALAD WITH CHICKPEAS AND FETA



Tomato Salad with Chickpeas and Feta image

Peak summer eating doesn't get much easier than this fresh tomato salad. Ripe, in-season tomatoes are best, but if they are not in their prime, the simple technique of salting them first will draw out maximum flavor. Roasted nuts and seeds are excellent pantry items and make a perfect no-cook, savory-sweet crisp topping. The nut-seed-spice mixture is completely flexible; use what you have on hand, and add aromatic seeds like nigella or fennel if you like. The store-bought granola is optional, but it adds a surprising sweetness and even more crunch. (Opt for one that is as plain as possible and without dried fruits or chocolate.) Make extra topping and keep it in an airtight jar for sprinkling over salads and roasted vegetables.

Categories     salads and dressings, vegetables

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes (any variety), cut into roughly 1- to 2-inch pieces
1 garlic clove, grated
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained
1 (7-ounce) block feta cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Handful of basil leaves
1/4 cup roasted, salted shelled sunflower seeds, roughly chopped (see Tip)
1/4 cup roasted, salted pepitas, roughly chopped
1/4 cup roasted, salted almonds, roughly chopped
1/4 cup roasted, salted pistachios, roughly chopped
1/2 cup plain oat granola (no fruit or chocolate added), roughly chopped (optional)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon chile powder or red-pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Place tomatoes into a large bowl and add the garlic and 1 teaspoon salt. Using your hands or a large spoon, gently toss the tomatoes so that everything is evenly coated. Let the tomatoes sit for about 10 minutes. (The salt will draw out flavor from the tomatoes.)
  • Meanwhile make the topping: Combine the sunflower seeds, pepitas, almonds, pistachios, granola if using, sesame seeds, chile powder and salt. Toss to combine. Season with a few turns of black pepper and stir everything together.
  • Add the chickpeas, feta, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper to the tomatoes and toss to combine. Taste and adjust olive oil, salt and pepper to your liking. Tear up basil leaves and sprinkle on top.

BLACK BEAN, CORN, AND TOMATO SALAD WITH FETA CHEESE



Black Bean, Corn, and Tomato Salad with Feta Cheese image

I tasted many salads with similar ingredients, but all seemed very bland, so I developed this myself. It is dressed with a lime vinaigrette and has lots of crunch and flavor with a little jalapeno pop. It's wonderful to make in summer with fresh ingredients from the garden or farmer's market. This is great with BBQ's or for potlucks. My husband likes it best with fish tacos.

GRILLED ASPARAGUS AND TOMATO SALAD WITH FETA



Grilled Asparagus and Tomato Salad With Feta image

This complete side is made directly on the grill. Prep everything and let the cook/griller do the rest. Pretty and a wowzer. It will become the centerpiece of your meal. Recipe by Jamie Purviance. (Don't feel like making the vinaigrette, use a good-quality bottled brand.)

Provided by gailanng

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons champagne vinegar (can sub rice vinegar or white wine vinegar)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lbs asparagus
1 pint cherry tomatoes
3 slices country-style white bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or 2 tablespoons green onions

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F) and preheat the grill pan.
  • In a small bowl whisk together the mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper. Slowly add in the oil, whisking constantly until it is emulsified.
  • Remove and discard the tough bottom of each asparagus spear by grasping at each end and bending it gently until it snaps at its natural point of tenderness, usually about two-thirds of the way down the spear.
  • Spread the asparagus on a large plate. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette and turn the spears until they are evenly coated. (I lightly salt the asparagus at this point.) In a medium bowl toss the tomatoes and bread cubes with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette.
  • Brush the cooking grates clean. Spread the tomatoes and bread cubes in a single layer on the grill pan and lay the asparagus on the cooking grate. Grill over direct medium heat, with the lid closed as much as possible, until the asparagus is tender, the tomatoes begin to soften, and the bread cubes are toasted, turning often. The asparagus will take 6 to 8 minutes and the tomatoes and bread cubes will take 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Arrange the asparagus on a platter and top with the tomatoes, croutons, feta, and chives. Serve with the remaining vinaigrette.
