Fresh Green Beans?

[angelia]

Ok, my mother gave me some wonderfully fresh green beans from her garden and now that I"m raw.. I have no ideal what to do with them!! I always cooked them....

Any ideals??? I did a search and couldn't find any....:(

I don't have any "recipes" to give you but you could just add them to a salad or simply eat them as is as a snack. I'm sure you could also jazz them up by marinating them in some extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, spices, etc. and use them in whatever way you choose. I love fresh green beens. I love how crispy they are. Hopefully, you'll be given more ideas.

Happy munching :D

duh! I never thought of just adding them to a salad! I've been cooking them for so long!
Thanks!!:)

They are also so yummy to just sit down on the ground and chow raw. That's my favorite way!

Lol. Glad I could be of some help :) Salads are great that way; you can pretty much add whatever you want to them. You're not limited.

You can also add them to your Smoothies, use them with a Dip, grate them in slithers with the Food Processor and Mix with almost Anything.

I love eating them raw and just like the are. Sometimes I'll sprinkle a little water or vinegar on them (just enough to wet the beans) and put a little sea salt on them.

I use to cook mine with garlic, sesame oil, fresh or dried coconut and ginger. Of course salt and pepper. There just as good marinated in that and eaten raw:)

I just eat them raw and sometimes I'll cut them in quarter inch pieces and put them on my salad just for something different.
