In a small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning and salt. Stir in feta cheese, breaking up the larger pieces. Set aside.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the green and wax beans; cook for 2 minutes. Add the red pepper; cook 1 minute. Immediately drain and rinse with cold water.

TIPS:
WHAT IS BLANCHING?
Blanching is a step where vegetables are cooked in boiling water for a short time and then are cooled quickly to stop the cooking process. This step produces a bright color and a crisp yet tender vegetable.
SPECIAL PRESENTATION:
For a different presentation, blanch the vegetables separately and place in rows in the PYREX® dish.
