Barely-Cooked Green Beans with Tahini-Lemon Sauce and Parsley are a great Thanksgiving side dish! |
(For Phase One Fridays I highlight Phase One recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites, and this recipe I first tried for the countdown to Thanksgiving last year is now something I love to make whenever I have fresh green beans. If you buy those thin green beans at Costco, they're perfect for this. And if you're looking for a Thanksgiving recipe that everyone can enjoy, this recipe is Paleo, Gluten-Free, and Vegan!)
Thanksgiving is kind of a fun paradox. Even though it's a food holiday where most people have traditional favorites that they make every year, it's also the biggest time of year for food magazines, cooking shows, and food bloggers to recommend new possible Thanksgiving menu options. I've been suggesting diet-friendly Thanksgiving Recipes for the last seven years, and that includes quite a few recipes for green beans (including Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms, Balsamic, and Parmesan, which has turned into one of the most popular recipes ever on the blog.) This new recipe for Barely-Cooked Green Beans with Tahini-Lemon Sauce and Parsley was quick enough to be super-easy for Thanksgiving, and it was something that Jake and I gobbled up when we tested the recipe. If you don't feel adventurous enough to have this for Thanksgiving I hope you'll try it another time, because these beans are really good!
