Awesome Greens And Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Pour enough water into a large pot to be about 2 inches deep; bring to a boil. Stir 1 teaspoon salt into the boiling water; add escarole. Cook the escarole at a boil, pushing the escarole further into the water as it wilts, until it is fork-tender, 3 to 5 minutes; drain.
• Pour olive oil into the pot and place over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in hot oil until the garlic is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir drained escarole and cannellini beans into the garlic mixture; cook and stir until the beans are hot, 5 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the mixture just before serving.

Steps:

• Snap the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife if you'd prefer.
• Melt the bacon grease in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a minute. Then add the green beans and cook until the beans turn bright green, about a minute. Add the chicken broth, chopped red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Turn the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid, leaving the lid cracked to allow steam to escape. Cook until the liquid evaporates and the beans are fairly soft, yet still a bit crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. You can add more chicken broth during the cooking process, but don't be afraid to let it all cook away so the onions and peppers can start to caramelize.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large Dutch oven.
• Add onion and garlic slices. Saute until tender about 3 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and salt and pepper; stir until fragrant. Add the kale and let saute until it cooks down slightly. Add the beans and the chicken stock.
• Cover and let cook for 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Put a medium skillet on stove and heat to medium.
• Add the bacon and cook till crisp, then remove to paper towel, keep bacon fat in skillet.
• Add onions and saute till lightly brown.
• Add green beans(undrained or just partially drained).
• Add vinegar and cook on medium- low until liquid is evaporated. Taste the beans and add salt and pepper if needed, but remember the bacon is salty!
• Then serve with bacon sprinkled on top.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry shallot and garlic in hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes; add kale, cream of chicken soup, sriracha sauce, cream cheese, and sour cream to the skillet. Cook and stir the mixture until the cream cheese melts and the liquid is even in color, about 5 minutes.
• Stir green beans into the mixture to coat, season with black pepper, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, 5 to 7 minutes.
