For variety you can use different vegetables and nuts with the same dressing or even change the dill to another herb like parsley, basil, or cilantro. Nuts like almonds and walnuts have been shown to protect against diabetes by leveling out blood sugar levels after meals. This makes them a great addition to any meal, so sprinkle a few on your salads or side dishes.


The “good” fat from almonds has been shown to reduce LDL cholesterol from 8% to 12%.


1lb. green beans, washed and trimmed
1/2 cup sliced almonds

Dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 lemon, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon each sea salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon tahini
1 tablespoon white miso
1 tablespoon fresh dill



Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch green beans until tender, but not overcooked, about 1 minute. Pull out with skimmer and drain.

Meanwhile, blend dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor. Drizzle green beans with dressing and garnish with sliced almonds.
