Transfer the beans to the ice water to cool. Remove from the ice water with a slotted spoon and let drain on a kitchen towel; blot dry with another towel.
If using fresh garlic, mash with salt using the back of a spoon until a paste forms. Whisk the garlic paste (or garlic powder and salt) with yogurt, oil, parsley (if using) and pepper in a large bowl. Add the green beans and toss to coat. Serve cold.

Food & Recipes
Ingredients
Instructions
Cherry Nut Granola
Prep: 10 minutes | Cook: 45 minutes | Total Time: 55 minutes
- quick oats
- flax seeds
- sesame seeds
- raw pumpkin seeds
- raw pistachios
- raw slivered almonds
- cinnamon
- sea salt
- brown sugar
- unsweetened applesauce
- organic unsalted butter
- agave nectar or local honey
- real vanilla extract
dried cherries
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a saucepan, on low heat, melt the brown sugar, applesauce, agave nectar/honey, butter, and vanilla. Let it warm through so the sugar breaks down and all flavors incorporate.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, cinnamon, salt, nuts, and seeds. Slowly drizzle the wet mixture on the oat mix and stir until all oats are covered. It should look pretty moist but not ‘wet’.
- Spread the granola in an even layer on a baking pan (also known as jelly roll pan; 1/2 inch sides). Place the rack in the middle of the oven and bake for 15 minutes, stir. Granola should take about 45 minutes to cook; continue to stir every 15 minutes for even color.
- Pull out the granola and fold in the dried cherries. Allow the granola to cool completely before adding chocolate chips or putting it in a container.

Wheight Loss & Diet Plan
Back in 2000, while attending a small science conference at the
Holiday Inn in Barrie, Ontario, I discovered one ingredient NEVER to
eat.
Literally, NEVER.
And yet it is one of the most common artificial ingredients, and you've
probably had a couple of grams already today (probably in the peanut
butter that you thought was healthy).
According to Dr. Bruce Holub, a researcher at the University of Guelph:
"There is NO safe level of this ingredient and food producers should
cease and desist the industrial production of it."
WOW. Could he be any clearer? In fact, eating just a tiny amount of
this nasty ingredient can increase your risk of heart disease and make
you store more and more visceral fat...
A dangerous kind of belly fat that's almost impossible to get rid of.
But at the link below, my good friend and Food Investigator, Nick
Pineault (aka - the "Nutrition Nerd") reveals EXACTLY how to rid this
TOXIC food from your life forever:
=> Eliminate this TOXIC ingredient from your kitchen today!
Believe it or not, MANY of the "health" food labels that show zero
amounts of this toxic ingredient actually contain significant amounts,
but food companies get to LIE about it. Seriously, thank the government
lobbyists for another scam.
But due to Nick's relentless investigation of fat-burning Foods, you
can now avoid this fat-storing nightmare:
=> See if this TOXIC ingredient is in your favorite foods
Please get rid of it immediately for your family's safety.
Eat healthy and lose fat instead,
Dr. C
P.S. - Here are some of the foods you'll find it in...
- pizza and pie crust
- granola bars
- nut butters
- anything from a bag or a box
- almost every cheat food
- fast food milkshakes
- cookies
- donuts (sorry Homer!)
- some frappincino style coffees
- and worse, so many of your children's foods!

Please beware this TOXIC AVENGER!
