Pesto Green Beans

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
2. Cut the beans into 1-2” pieces and add to the water. Boil for 3 minutes, until the beans are tender and bright green.
3. While the beans cook, whisk together the lemon juice, salt, a few turns of black pepper, garlic, olive oil, and pesto in a large bowl.
4. Drain the beans and transfer directly to the bowl. The heat will help the garlic bloom.
5. Serve immediately as a side, or serve cold as a salad.
