Balsamic-Parmesan Haricots Verts

May 21, 2014 by Katie Leave a Comment

I feel so fancy…I made haricots verts!

In other words, I made green beans…

Not your average, run-of-the-mill green beans though.  Haricots verts are French green beans that are slightly longer and thinner than the traditional green bean.  They just add a bit of elegance to any meal.  I got my haricots verts at my Trader Joe’s.  If you can’t find them though, you can absolutely substitute regular green beans.

I made this simple yet delicious side dish to go along with my Garlic-Balsamic Pork Tenderloin. It was very easy to make and took less than 15 minutes from start to finish.  (That’s my kind of side dish!)

My inspiration came from this recipe.  I used  little less balsamic than the original recipe called for and was very satisfied.  The vinegar was not overpowering; there was just a hint of it in the background.  The Parmesan added a nice nuttiness.  I was really a fan.
