Ingredients

Scale

1 lb green beans, trimmed

1 tbsp olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved

⅓ cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced

½ cup crumbled feta cheese

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Optional twist: add a scoop of hummus or cooked quinoa for a heartier bowl

Lemon-Tahini Drizzle:

¼ cup tahini

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp olive oil

1 garlic clove, finely minced

23 tbsp water (to thin)

Salt to taste


Instructions

Preheat grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Toss green beans in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for 4–5 minutes, turning occasionally until charred and tender.

Whisk together lemon-tahini ingredients until smooth and drizzle-ready. Add water gradually to reach desired consistency.

Assemble bowls: Layer grilled green beans, tomatoes, olives, red onion, and feta.

Drizzle with tahini sauce, sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm or at room temperature.
