GREEN BEAN AND ASPARAGUS SALAD
Very tasty salad of roasted asparagus and green beans. I got the inspiration when I was indecisive about choosing between the two vegetables for a side dish. Roasting the vegetables brings out their great flavor and the addition of cherry tomatoes, onion, and fresh parsley give it a lovely color.

GARLIC ASPARAGUS AND GREEN BEANS
This recipe could not be easier. It's ready in minutes and is good hot, room temp or cold. If you like your green beans a little more tender you need to put them in the pan first to give them a little more cooking time. I make this when I have the ingredients fresh in the garden and the flavors are so bright and simple.You can add baby carrots too if you have them.

Steps:
- Bring a 5- to 6-quart pot of water seasoned with 1 tablespoon kosher salt to a boil. Cook asparagus and string beans until just tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain, then transfer in a single layer to paper or kitchen towels to dry.
- Separate white parts from green parts of scallions. Halve whites lengthwise. Halve green parts lengthwise and again in half crosswise. You should have approximately 3-inch pieces.
- Heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat until oil shimmers. Add white parts of scallions and sauté until they just begin to wilt and turn golden, about 2 minutes.
- Add asparagus, green beans, and 1/4 teaspoon salt and sauté to heat through, 1 minute. Add green parts of scallions and continue to sauté until they just begin to wilt, about 1 minute more. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve with a fresh grind of black pepper.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, crisp asparagus and green beans. Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tight tips. Avoid spears that are limp or woody. Choose green beans that are a deep green color and have a slight snap when you break them.
- Trim the asparagus and green beans. Cut off the woody ends of the asparagus spears and the stem ends of the green beans.
- Blanch the asparagus and green beans. This will help to preserve their color and flavor. To blanch the asparagus, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until it is bright green and tender. Immediately remove the asparagus from the boiling water and transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Repeat the process with the green beans.
- Season the asparagus and green beans. In a large bowl, combine the blanched asparagus and green beans with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss to coat.
- Roast the asparagus and green beans. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread the seasoned asparagus and green beans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly browned.
- Serve the asparagus and green beans. You can serve the roasted asparagus and green beans immediately, or you can let them cool and then store them in the refrigerator for later.
Conclusion:
This recipe for seasoned green beans and asparagus is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The asparagus and green beans are roasted to perfection and seasoned with a simple blend of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
