Green Bean Raspberry Salad with Walnuts and Herbs de Provence


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




The green beans are blanched to crisp-tender and tossed with a mix of garlic, olive oil, and Herbs de Provence. It is perfect for a starter or side dish that goes well with nearly any main and takes no more than 20 minutes to prepare.
