Crispy Beans with Quick Pickled Veggies

Gluten-free crispy beans with quick pickled late summer veggies; this flavor combination is going to blow your mind.
August 29, 2014

quick-pickled-summer-veggies (2)

A couple of weeks ago I turned 31. I worked on my birthday and it wasn’t like the best, blah blah blah – I’m over it. But, I love my birthday, I love getting older. Each year I celebrate small transitions to a better, wiser, happier Earthling. I’m working on letting go of the unimportants, you know – the small stuff, the pointlessness, the worries, the materials, the what-ifs.  I’m working on becoming a more secure me. It isn’t always easy. Life is not always easy, we know this. But I’m learning to really enjoy the process and that is, liberating.

I’m not a girl who obsesses over each new wrinkle and grey hair found. Laugh lines, freckles, sun-spots, my word I’ve got tons because this fair-skinned goddess didn’t learn how to properly wear sunscreen until age 28. Though I’ve yet to find a grey – so maybe ask me again when I do.

Crispy Beans

This serves 2 entree sized portions + takes just 30 minutes.

Ingredients:

  • {1} quart of yellow or green beans
  • 1 farm fresh egg
  • 3 cups Multigrain Chips, or your favorite flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic granules

Preheat your oven to 375.

Wash and trim the ends off your beans.

In food processor combine the chips, sea salt and garlic granules. Pulse until finely-coarse, think breadcrumb texture. You could also probably do this part by hand, just slowly mashing them with a wooden spoon in a bowl until the desired texture forms. Then pour the crumbs into a shallow dish. And, in a separate shallow dish whisk your egg.

Dip your beans one by one in the egg and then roll them into the chip crumbs. Place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Quick Pickled Late-Sumer Veggies

These flavor packed gems will keep in your refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon raw honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon black peppercorns, optional
  • 3 collard leaves, ribs removed + finely shredded
  • 1 ear corn, off the cob
  • 1/2 red pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 yellow pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 – 3 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup filtered water

In a small sauce pan heat the vinegar, sea salt + honey until they are all full dissolved and near boiling.

Layer all of your veggies in a mason jar {or any other 24 ounce glass jar with a lid} – then pour the piping hot vinegar mixture on top. Add in the peppercorns and let sit to nearly room temperature. Lastly add the filtered water, cover it with the lid, give it shake and pop it in the refrigerator. The veggies are essentially ready now, but I prefer them very cold so I let them sit refrigerated for at least an hour before eating.

To assemble, plate the crispy beans and then top them with the veggies. Both are components are amazing on their own, but their flavor and texture when combined is kinda mind-blowing.
