GREEN BEAN AND CORN ALMONDINE
The classic French dish of green beans and almonds gets a fun update with the addition of corn, which lends extra sweetness, chewy texture and pops of golden color. The simply prepared dish allows the tender green beans and corn to shine in a velvety garlic- and thyme-infused butter sauce. The nutty flavor and delicate crunch of toasted sliced almonds round out the dish. (Haricots verts also work beautifully here, in place of the green beans, but decrease the steaming time to 3 minutes.) This quick and versatile salad pairs well with many different foods and can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds on a baking sheet and bake until golden, 6 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large (12-inch) deep skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds.

Stir in butter and corn, and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn and green beans are tender and glazed in the sauce, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard the thyme sprigs, and season with salt and pepper.

Tips:
- Fresh Produce: Use the freshest corn, spinach, and green beans you can find. Fresh produce will have a more vibrant color and better flavor.
- Quick Cooking: Sautéing is a quick cooking method, so be careful not to overcook the vegetables. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Seasoning: Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika, to taste.
- Butter or Oil: You can use butter or oil to sauté the vegetables. Butter will add a richer flavor, while oil is a healthier option.
- Don't Crowd the Pan: When sautéing the vegetables, don't crowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of sauté.
- Veggies Need Room: Make sure to give the vegetables enough room in the pan so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will not cook evenly and will become mushy.
- Sauce It Up: If you want to add a little extra flavor to the sautéed vegetables, you can add a sauce. A simple sauce made with olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs is a great option.
Conclusion:
Sautéed corn, spinach, and green beans is a quick, easy, and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a main meal or as a snack. The vegetables are cooked in a flavorful sauce and are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this recipe a try!
