Easy to make and only 10 inexpensive ingredents. Taste like it took hours to make but in reality, it takes only a few minutes. I make this to take to potluck suppers,Bunko dinners with our friends & game night at our church. I have made this dish in place of Greenbean Casserole at Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. Everyone asks me to make this,my family loves it I hope you do too!

    Put the green beans into a shallow serving dish, sprinkle with nuts, onion and feta cheese. Toss with dressing just before serving. This is hood chilled or room temp.
