Cowboy Poetry Cookbook






List of Ingredients



• 1-1/2 lbs. green beans
  
• 1 red pepper
  
• Green onions
  
• 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
  
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  
• Salt
  
• Pepper
  






Instructions



1. Wash and trim the beans. Slice the pepper into long strips. Gather approximately 10 beans of similar size and one slice of red pepper into a bunch. Tie them together using strips of green onion tops. Repeat this procedure until all the beans are "packaged."
   
   
2. Place the green bean bundles in a steamer basket and place over boiling water. Steam the beans approximately 20 minutes or until tender but not soft.
   
   
3. Place the cooked bean packages on a serving platter and drizzle with the butter. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
