1 pound green beans, trimmed
1 tablespoon Sriracha

Instructions

Mix the miso paste, garlic and soy sauce together in a small bowl, set asid.
Add the coconut oil to a medium pan and turn to high heat.
Let the oil heat for a minute, then add the green beans and toss to coat them in oil.
After a minute or so, you should see small brown blister spots. (If you don’t, turn up the heat a bit.)
Continue to cook them, tossing as necessary, until they are all blistered, about 5 minutes.
Add the miso mixture to the browned beans and toss to coat.
Let the beans saute in the mixture for about two minutes before adding the Sriracha and transferring to a serving platter.

MINDFUL CUISINE’S SPRING SALAD WITH PURPLE SPROUTING BROCCOLI, SNAP PEAS AND SPINACH

Ingredients

For the salad:

1 bunch purple sprouting broccoli, ends trimmed and stalks cut to separate
4 ounces snap peas, ends trimmed and strings removed
Roughly 3 ounces baby spinach leaves
A few sprigs of mint or leaves
3 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn into pieces
2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts

For the Lemon Garlic White Balsamic Dressing:

1 garlic clove, very finely mince or grated on a microplane
1 teaspoon stone ground Dijon mustard
Zest of half a lemon
2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons olive olive oil
Finishing salt, such as Maldon

Instructions

Prepare a large pot of boiling water, salted to taste like the sea for blanching the broccoli and peas. Also prepare an ice bath to immediately stop the cooking and chill the vegetables.
Blanch the peas until you see the green color brighten – about 30 seconds. Remove to the ice bath and when chilled, strain out and spread on a towel to dry. You may need to add more ice so the water is cold to used to chill broccoli.
Blanch the purple broccoli until the green color brightens. This should take about 1 minute, but can vary with the size of your broccoli spears. Remove the ice bath. When chilled, strain out and spread on a towel to dry.
Wash and dry spinach.
Make the salad dressing in small jar with a lid (I use a 1/2 pint Mason jar). Add the minced garlic, mustard, lemon zest, vinegar and salt. Shake to combine. Add olive oil and shake vigorously to emulsify. Taste for salt and acidity. If your white balsamic is fairly sweet you may want to add a squeeze of lemon juice.
Assemble the salad (This salad looks best served on a small platter or shallow flat bowl):Place the spinach in a small bowl. Dress with just enough dressing to coat the leaves. Spread the spinach leaves on your platter.
Place the broccoli and snap peas in the same bowl you used for the spinach. Add with enough dressing to coat the broccoli spears and snap peas. Scatter over the spinach.
Tear the mozzarella into bite-sized pieces and scatter over the top.
Sprinkle toasted pine nuts on top.
Scatter whole mint leaves or cut in ribbons
Sprinkle with a finishing sea salt, such as Maldon.
