Time to give this thread a kick in the ass...

Here is the recipe for the bean salad to accompany the salmon, belated but as promised:

1 lb green beans, trimmed
1/2 lb yellow beans, trimmed
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 shallots, diced
1 red pepper, diced
1 clove garlic, minced

Glaze:
1/2 tsp. grated lemon rind
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. chopped fresh oregano
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
salt & pepper
1/4 c. olive oil
1/2 c. crumbled feta cheese
1/4 c. black olives

Cook beans in boiling water until tender, drain well and place in bowl. Heat oil in skillet on med. heat and sauté shallots, peppers and garlic until softened. Add to beans.
Whisk together the lemon rind, juice, oregano, garlic and mustard, season with salt and pepper. Drizzle in olive oil and whisk until combined. Pour over beans and toss to coat well. Sprinkle with feta cheese.

This recipe compliments the salmon (post #1) very well and can be served hot or cold.
