Servings: persons

1 pound green beans cleaned and ends removed
1/2 red onion medium
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 tablespoons balsamic glaze
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
6 ounces goat cheese or to taste
green beans
balsamic vinegar
toasted almonds
dried cranberries
Craisins
goat cheese

1
Cook the green beans: Either steam them, or boil them. If boiling, bring a large pot of water to a boil, and cook the green beans until crisp-tender, or however you prefer to eat them. (It takes about 5 minutes to cook the beans to crisp-tender, and I really dislike overcooked vegetables so I watch them carefully.) When the beans are cooked, carefully drain the water and rinse the beans under cold water in a colander until they are no longer hot.
2
Toast the sliced almonds in a small skillet over medium heat until they just start to brown. Set aside.
3
Combine the balsamic glaze and Dijon mustard in a small bowl and mix well until all the mustard clumps are gone.
4
Finely dice the half of the red onion.
5
In a large pan or a wok, saute the red onion in olive oil for 5 minutes, or until the onion has softened. Add the salt and stir.
6
Add the balsamic glaze mixture and the dried cranberries and let them cook together for a minute. Add the green beans and the toasted almonds and gently toss them in the wok to coat them in the balsamic glaze. Remove from heat.
7
Serve with crumbled goat cheese. Make sure to get some of that cranberry/almond saucy goodness that might sink to the bottom of the serving dish.
