Simple, satisfying lunch made super easy, since all the stuff came out of my garden (except the hummus, which was storebought - Wendy and Barb's Skinny Dips is what I used). If you don't have purple beans (see the photo), which are exactly the same as green beans but purple (duh), just swap colours! Read more ! Yellow would work too, and the purple ones actually turn green as they cook. Ingredients:
6 oz green or purple beans, chopped into 1 pieces |
3 tbsp skinny dips hummus |
1 tsp lemon juice |
1/4 tsp oregano |
1 sprig parsley, minced |
3 oz iceberg or romaine lettuce, shredded |
1 plum tomato, halved lengthwise and sliced thinly |
fresh-ground black pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Steam the bean pieces 4 minutes over boiling water. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl, mix together hummus, lemon juice, oregano and parsley. Set aside.
3. Place lettuce in a salad bowl.
4. Top with tomato slices and warm, steamed beans.
5. Season with pepper.
6. Pour hummus mixture overtop of everything, toss lightly to coat.
7. Serve immediately.
