ingredients

500 g green beans, ends trimmed
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
2 red onions, cut into rings
400 g cannellini beans
100 g feta, crumbled
Dressing
60 ml extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, crushed

directions

Make the dressing by whisking together the last 3 ingredients listed above (oil, garlic and vinegar) and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine the onions with the olive oil and balsamic. Set to one side.
Cook the green beans in a large saucepan of boiling water until they're just tender - about 2 minutes.
Drain the beans and refresh in a bowl of cold water, then drain again.
Drain and rinse the cannelloni beans.
Heat a char-grill pan or barbecue until very hot, then add the onions and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly charred and tender.
Add both lots of beans to the pan, and cook a further minute.
Place the beans and onions in a bowl, add half the balsamic dressing and half the feta and toss gently to combine all ingredients.
Drizzle the remaining balsamic dressing over the top and sprinkle the remaining feta. Serve immediately.

<img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> I love entertaining at home and having friends and family over for a meal is one of my favourite ways to catch up. I'm a working mother of one, so I'm often looking for things that taste and look fantastic - but are simple to prepare. Gone are the days when I'd spend all day assembling a meal for the night's dinner party! My husband loves to eat - and occassionally bbqs - and I'm hoping that one day the palate of my discerning 6 yr old daughter will enjoy both the outputs and endeavours of my kitchen. I'm always to looking for new ideas and inspirations. I also love to pass on my successful recipes to others. I frequently create or adapt dishes that I've seen, read or tasted someweere. I'm also conscious of my family's health, so am always keen to explore how I can reduce the fat content but keep things tasting delicious.
