Instructions
- Start by making the pesto. Heat a small frying pan over a low heat. Cook the pine nuts until golden, shaking occasionally. Put into a food processor with the basil, parmesan, olive oil and garlic cloves. Whizz until smooth, then season to taste.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan. Add the green beans and cook until starting to blister.
- Tip the green beans into a bowl with the 5 Bean Medley. Stir in a couple of heaped tablespoons of pesto and top with pomegranate seeds and mixed seeds, if you'd like!
- Store any remaining pesto in a sterilised jar in the fridge.
