kraft kitchens tips

How to Purchase and Store Fresh Green Beans

Look for slender, crisp beans that break with a "snap." Check to be sure they are not scarred or brown. Keep loosely wrapped and unwashed in a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate and use within 4 days. Wash just before using.

Excellent recipe - easy to make and so tasty too. I omitted the olives as no-one in my family likes them and it was still good and tasted even better the next day when it had marinated longer!

Quick easy and very satisfying. Great for potlucks. DIdn't add sun dried tomatoes just as good without them.

It was not too bad. I didn't have the sundried tomatoes or stuffed olives, but it was great as is. I enjoyed the chickpeas.

I loved this recipe, very easy, lasts at least 2 days. Used Italian dressing as I didn't have the recommended one. Linda

This dish was so easy to prepare, and absolutely delicious! I've already made it a couple of times, and my mom can't wait for me to make it again!

I am always looking for new vegetarian ideas for my daughter and this one was a hit. I have mixed it up with broccoli and pasta as well and added feta cheese. It makes a great one dish meal.

I have made this recipe several times, and my family loves it. It's really simple, healthy and delicious. A great summer side for any BBQ! We're not big on sundried tomatoes, so I usually omit those. As a variation, I sometimes substitute broccoli for the cauliflower, and have even added-in 2 cups cooked rainbow rotini.
