You will say more please!
We are not really green bean people. We add them in things, but hardly ever make them for just themselves. However, we love, love, love these. I think the good thing about this recipe, is you could change the cheese type, nuts, or no nuts, and it would still be excellent. And it's so quick and easy. Plus it scales easy for more or less. I make a half recipe for just my wife and I.

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.

In Turkey we cook this dish in summer time. Cold and ready to eat for couple of days. My kid doesn't like cold food, so I heat it up for her.

I love making veggies more appealing to the eye. Especially when I cook for my nieces and nephews. As always the seasoning quantity is a starting point. Let the spirits guide you!

It's been an age-and-a-half since I've had one of my favourite indulgences: blue cheese. So when the wife agreed to a pasta night, it didn't take long to decide on the type of sauce to make. Creamy, delicious blue cheese, of course. With a little (or a lot) of crispy bacon mixed in. And some walnuts for crunch. And bright, cheerful sweet peas because, y'know, veg. If you're thinking of making this, a word of warning: this dish is heavy. So dieters, stay away. To help cope with some of the richness, I've included a bonus recipe for a super-simple tomato salad. It makes a great accompaniment to the pasta.

Green Beans with Dill Green Beans with Dill

Steamed green beans served with a button of butter make for a perfectly acceptable side dish, but if you're looking to elevate the green bean to company-worthy status (with almost no more effort), here's your recipe, courtesy of chef Amanda Hesser. Just blanch the beans for a few minutes, toss with butter, chopped fresh dill and a grind or two of black pepper.#vegetarian #vegan
