Best 4 Awesome Green Beans With Kale Recipes

GREEN BEAN AND KALE CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚. Toss the bread pieces on a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Roast, tossing halfway through, until browned and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook until bright green and just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain and transfer to the ice water to cool completely. Drain again and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; pat dry.
• Make the dressing: Puree the anchovies, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, parmesan and mustard in a blender, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula, until smooth. With the machine running, slowly drizzle in the remaining ¼ cup olive oil and blend until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Combine the green beans, kale and half each of the croutons and pepitas in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the remaining croutons and pepitas; sprinkle with more parmesan.

SPICY PARMESAN GREEN BEANS AND KALE

Steps:

• Warm the olive oil in a large, heavy saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms, green beans, salt, and pepper and cook for 2 minutes. Add the wine and continue cooking until the green beans are almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and the kale and continue cooking until the kale has wilted, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the lemon juice and the Parmesan cheese. Toss to coat and serve immediately.

YUMMY BEANS N' GREENS IN A BOWL (KALE SOUP)

Steps:

• Heat a dutch oven and spray with cooking spray. Add olive oil and then the onion and garlic. Saute just until it begins to soften, Add chicken broth and allow to continue cooking while you begin the next steps.
• Wash whatever greens you choose to use and remove any hard stalks. Stack the leaves one on top of the other, roll like a cigar and slice into 1/4 inch slices, then cut the pieces in half. This will give you nice ribbons that are not too wide or long.
• Add greens, sugar and nutmeg (if using) to the pan. (Save spinach for later) Stir to combine. (The sugar will not make the dish sweet but will balance some of the bitterness from the greens).
• Rinse and drain beans and add to pan. Stir gently. Simmer for 20 minutes or until greens are al dente or as soft as you would like. Toss in spinach just to wilt.
• Ladle each serving into a bowl and top with a generous sprinkling of freshly grated parmesan cheese and additional cracked pepper if desired. Crusty bread is also a great accompaniment for all the yummy broth that is swimming in the bowl.
• Enjoy!
