I discovered this marvelous recipe on pbs.org of all places! We were blessed with green beans from the co-op this weekend and I was so pleased with how quickly this comes together.
Balsamic Pomegranate Green Beans
1
lb. fresh green beans, trimmed
1/3 c. balsamic
vinegar
2
T. olive oil
¼
c. fresh pomegranate seeds
¼
c. crumbled feta cheese
2
T. chopped walnuts
Bring
a medium pot of salt water to a boil. Add the beans and cook until bright green
and tender, but not soft, about 4-5 minutes. Drain the beans in a colander.
Quickly rinse the beans under cold running water and set aside.
Heat
the balsamic vinegar in a non-stick sauté pan on medium high heat for 2
minutes. The sauce should be the
consistency of thick syrup. Whisk in the olive oil, and remove the pan from
heat.
Transfer
the beans from the colander to a large serving tray. Evenly sprinkle the beans
with pomegranate seeds, feta cheese and the walnuts. Drizzle the reduced vinegar all over the
beans. Serve it forth!

Look so good - and easy too! Definitely trying it this week. (Hopped by from Homemade Mondays)
Those look really good. I make my green beans like my asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, parmesan cheese and lemon. I have never tried to do anything with feta. It looks like it might over shadow anything else with the meal :) YUM!!!
Ooooh … this sounds wonderful!
