I searched many cookbooks for string bean recipes, so when I found this recipe, I had to try it. Very simple to prepare with good a balance of flavors. Roasted red onion, yellow and red peppers added to blanched green beans make a delicious and colorful dish. Serve it warm or a room temperature.

Goat Cheese Tart : page 60
This tart is delicious. It can be served as a appetizer or a light lunch. The filling is smooth and creamy with the tang of goat cheese, and the crust is crisp and buttery.

Vegetable Tian : page 146
I am always looking for vegetarian side dishes to add to my buffet because some of my friends like to keep it light or just don't eat meat. This recipe is easy to prepare and hearty enough to be a main course. It can be made a day ahead and served either warmed up or at room temperature.
