Instructions

1. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil! Salt it heavy!

5. Wipe out the skillet and add the olive oil! Get it shimmering!
6. Toss in the sliced garlic and cherry tomatoes! Sauté for 3 minutes until the tomatoes start to blister and soften!
7. Add the chilled green beans and the Salted Perfection Santa Maria Select Blend to the skillet!
8. Toss everything together for 2 minutes until the beans are heated through and coated in those incredible herbs and spices!
9. Transfer to a serving platter and top with the toasted pine nuts! DUNZO!
