Green Bean Salad with Goat Cheese Dressing - 16g Carbs, 6g Fiber, 6g Sugar

From: www.wholefoodsmarket.com

Goat cheese makes a uniquely tangy dressing for crisp-cooked green
beans and sweet raw corn kernels.
Serves: 4

1 lb green beans, trimmed
2 oz crumbled fresh goat cheese
Zest of 1 lemon
1 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp apple juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup chopped fresh dill, divided
3/4 cup fresh corn (from 1 ear corn)
1 large tomato, diced

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook just
until they turn bright green and are barely tender, about 2 minutes.
Drain and cool in a bowl of ice cold water. Drain and pat dry.

To make the dressing, whisk together goat cheese, lemon zest and
juice, apple juice, garlic and pepper in a small bowl. Toss green
beans with half the dressing and half the dill and spread on a
platter. Top with corn and tomato, drizzle with remaining dressing
and sprinkle with remaining dill.
