Toast the almonds. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the almonds out on the pan and bake for 5-6 minutes (until lightly golden). Set aside.

Blanch the green beans. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add the green beans and cook for 3-4 minutes. Use a strainer to immediately transfer the beans to an ice bath. Leave them in the bath for 5 minutes - then pat the beans dry with a paper towel.

Make the vinaigrette. Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, dill, dijon mustard and garlic together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Toss & serve. Add the green beans, feta cheese and most of the toasted almonds to a large bowl. Pour the vinaigrette over the top and toss until the salad is fully coated.Arrange the salad on a serving platter and garnish with extra crumbled feta cheese and the remaining toasted almonds. Serve immediately.
