This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.


2 pounds green beans, trimmed
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon basil, minced
salt and pepper
bell peppers (red and yellow, for garnish)
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
In a large bowl, toss all the ingredients until the beans are well coated.
Place on a non-stick baking sheet in one layer (use more than one sheet if necessary). Roast for 10 minutes, stirring once.
Serve at room temperature garnished with the bell pepper slices.

Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

Green beans are one of those veggies that I'll eat if I have to. I don't hate them but they aren't at the top of my list. This recipe, however, made them the first thing I ate off my plate! They never really wilted in the sense that you wilt greens like spinach. Rather, they roasted, which combined with the balsamic mixture just made for a really tasty dish! And so easy! My faith in green beans has been renewed!
