Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 Simple Truth™Artisan Baguette
1 Simple Truth™ Organic Lemon, 1/2 teaspoon reserved for garnish, zested
¼ teaspoon Simple Truth™ Organic Ground Garlic Powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ tablespoons Simple Truth™ Organic Filtered Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 lb Simple Truth™ Organic Green Beans, ends trimmed
½ cup Simple Truth™ Plant-Based Caesar Dressing
1 tablespoon Simple Truth™ Organic Raw Pumpkin Seeds
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Simple Truth™ Organic Aged Parmesan Cheese

Steps:

  • Make the croutons: Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Tear the baguette into ½-inch pieces. You should have about 2 cups.
  • Add the bread pieces to a large bowl and toss with the lemon zest, garlic powder, and salt. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss to coat.
  • Spread the croutons in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and toast, stirring halfway through, for 15-20 minutes, or until dried and starting to turn golden brown.
  • While the croutons toast, prepare the green beans: Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat and add the salt. Fill a large bowl with ice water.
  • Add the Simple Truth™ Organic Green Beans to the boiling water and cook for 4-6 minutes, until slightly tender, but still crisp. Drain the beans, then immediately transfer to the ice bath and let sit for 2 minutes, until cool. Transfer the green beans to a paper towel and pat dry.
  • Stack the green beans on a serving platter and drizzle with the Simple Truth™ Plant-Based Caesar Dressing. Sprinkle with the Simple Truth™ Organic Raw Pumpkin Seeds, the pepper, and reserved ½ teaspoon lemon zest. Top with the croutons and shaved Simple Truth™ Organic Aged Parmesan Cheese.
  • Enjoy!
