Green Beans with Almond Pesto Directions
- Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Cook the beans in a large pot of boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain, then submerge in the ice water bath to fully cool. Drain again, and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the almonds, cheese, garlic, thyme leaves, crushed red pepper, and salt. Process to form a coarse paste. Add the vinegar and pulse to combine. Pour in the olive oil, and stir to combine. Add more salt or pepper flakes to taste.
- Top the green beans with almond pesto and toss to coat. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil, top with the tomatoes, and serve.
