This simple side dish was introduced to me by my husband. When he first suggested the combination of green beans and blueberries, I was skeptical. However, it quickly became a favorite in our household.
- 4 c. green beans -- cut into 1" pieces
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 T. butter
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
- 1 c. fresh blueberries
- 2 T. sliced almonds
Bring the green beans to a boil in a saucepan filled with water and 1 teaspoon salt. Steam until crisp-tender -- about 5 minutes. Drain.
Add the butter, pepper and blueberries to the drained beans. Mix gently to combine. Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top just before serving.
- Yields: 4-6 servings
