Instructions

  • Bring 1-2 inches of water to a boil in a large pot. Add the whole trimmed green beans to the pot. Allow to cook for about 2 minutes until they are bright green.
  • Remove the beans from the water and place them in the ice bath to stop them from cooking further. Allow them to cool completely. Place them in a salad bowl along with the cherry tomatoes, sweet corn and walnuts.
  • Place the cilantro dressing ingredients into a food processor and pulse until smooth and creamy.
  • Pour the sauce over the salad and toss well to combine. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for later.
