Bean Recipes

	Blue Lake Beans Blue Lake Green Beans are tender, tasty and are delicious raw as well as cooked. Cover in a pan with water and bring to a boil for just a few minutes. Drain water and cool with cold water. These beans can be eaten as is or drizzled with vinaigrette, pomegranate seeds and even blue cheese.
	Fava Beans Also called English bean, Windsor bean and horse bean, good-quality fava beans will be firm, smooth-skinned and very pale to medium green in color. The tough skin must be peeled and discarded. Use cooked or raw in salads or with dip.
	Yellow Wax Beans Yellow wax beans are a pale yellow almost translucent color. Place beans in a perforated plastic bag and store them in the refrigerator crisper. Although they will keep longer, up to 5 days, enjoy them within 2-3 days. Prepare as you would blue lake green beans. For extra interest, mix blue lake and yellow wax beans together for a colorful dish.
