nailed dinner tonight

Tonight we made a killer dinner. Literally, it was absolutely delicious, not to brag or anything. I had cut a recipe out of the paper for grilled lemon chicken with lemon feta green beans a few weeks ago and we decided to give it a try. We also made mashed potatoes. So this blog post will not contain just one recipe but three!!

2. Boil green beans until fully cooked.
3. Once green beans are fully cooked allow to cool in cold ice water.
4. Combine green beans with onion/juice dressing.
5. Add in drizzle of olive oil and feta.
6. Mix up everything.

Greek Feta Mashed Potatoes
