Prepare the Green Beans: Trim the ends of the green beans and cut into bite-sized pieces. Blanch them in salted boiling water for 3-5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp, then shock in ice water.
Shock in Ice Water: Transfer blanched green beans to ice water to stop cooking. Drain and pat dry.
Chop the Other Ingredients: While the beans cool, chop the cherry tomatoes, red onion, and herbs.
Combine in a Bowl: In a large bowl, combine green beans, tomatoes, red onion, and herbs. Crumble feta on top.
Dress the Salad: Whisk together olive oil and lemon juice with salt and pepper; drizzle over salad and toss gently to combine.
Adjust Seasoning and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed. Serve immediately or let sit for flavors to meld.

For a dairy-free option, swap feta for nutritional yeast. Consider adding other vegetables like bell peppers or cucumbers for extra crunch.
