They had the most beautiful purple green beans at my little mountain farmers market this week. Purple on the outside, green on the inside- gorgeous! When you cook them, they turn green, so I just sautee´ them very quickly to retain some of the purple. I tossed them with a handful of chopped fresh basil, feta and pepitas (pumpkin seeds, but you could use any nuts).

Happy summer weekend!
