Green Beans & Things

Ingredients

• 1/2 Cup Onion
• 1/2 Lb Green beans
• 1-3 Carrots
• 2.5 Cups of Butter Beans
• Fresh Parsley
• Lacinato kale (or other variety of greens)

Sauce

• 2 Slices of Onions, Chopped
• 2 Tomatoes (or handful of cherry tomatoes)
• 2 Cups Water (or broth if you prefer)
• 4 Sun Dried Tomatoes
• 1/2 Cup Soaked Hazelnuts
• 1-2 Cloves Garlic

Instructions

1. In a large pan, sauté chopped onions, with just a little healthy cooking oil of choice.
2. Blend sauce ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.
3. Pour the sauce into the pan. Then add washed and chopped green beans. (I only chop the end piece). Slice carrots lengthwise and in half, and add carrots.
4. Simmer on low for 20 minutes. Less if the green beans are skinnier.
5. Then add already cooked butter beans.
6. Simmer for 5 minutes, then add chopped parsley and kale. Simmer 5 more minutes.
7. Top with fresh cherry tomatoes and other garnishes like crispy sage leaves!

Notes

You can use cashews if you want to, or another nut. I like the flavor and nutrients of hazelnuts. It can look a little grainy and not as creamy as cashews but I stand behind my hazelnuts!
