  • 1 pound green beans
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ cup salad oil
  • 2 tablespoons wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons minced parsley
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 large green pepper
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ teaspoon dill weeds (optional)

  • How To Cook:
    1. Snip off and discard the ends from the green beans and remove any strings. Cut the beans lengthwise.

    2. Put the beans and water in a covered casserole and cook for 10 to 12 minutes in the microwave oven, until tender. Drain.

    3. Mix the salad oil, vinegar, parsley, salt, and pepper. Pour over the beans and mix well. Cover and refrigerate, stirring from time-to-time.

    4. When ready to serve, drain the beans and save the marinade. Seed the green pepper and cut into thin strips. Add to the beans.

    5. Blend the blue cheese, sour cream and enough of the marinade to thin to the desired consistency. Stir in the dill weed. Pour over the salad before serving.

    TIP:
        Cook the beans until they are just barely tender, as there will be enough residual cooking to finish tenderizing them. For a nice color contrast, stir in 2 tablespoons diced pimiento.
