I bough this huge bag of green beans at Costco. Great flavor and price, but as I told you before in my house is just my husband and I so I have to get 1000 ways to make this green beans.
I was looking in all my recipe books about different ways to serve them, and in one of the books that my aunt Judy gave me the first year I became vegetarian I found this recipe, but as always I made some changes, so this is the recipe I came up after all of that.
Green Bean Salad:
2 "handfull" of green beans
1/2 of iceberg lettuce
1 cup of cherry tomatoes
1 tablespoon of gold raisins
1 tablespoon of pine nuts.
Dressing
1 Lime (squeeze all the juice)
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 oz of blue cheese
1 clove of garlic (peeled and crushed)
1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
When I do my salad dressings I usually use a glass container to put everything inside and give it a "good shake" after that, then let it sit for a little so all the ingredients fuse together.
To do this salad:
First trim and clean the beans, and steam them in with a little of sea salt, or you also can boil them in a slightly salted water for a couple of minutes until they are just cooked. Drain them and let them cool down.
Put in a bowl all the other ingredients and sprinkle the pine nuts at the time of serving.
