*Sabzi koko is a Persian egg dish with parsley, chives and cilantro. I got a bag of the herb blend and just sauteed a bunch in the pan before adding the egg mixture.

**RECIPE
Cook 1 lb. green beans (I use the French kind) until just tender

2 roasted red peppers seeded and cut into strips (I do this on my stove, I just put them on top of the gas flame until they are black, keep turning them, put in plastic bag for 5 minutes after, this makes them super easy to peel)

1 can of cannellini beans (you can use any bean you like, I used these for the color)

1.5 cups cooked quinoa (pronounced keen-wha, it is available at most grocery stores, it's a whole grain and kind of like polenta or couscous)

Mix all of these together.

Cilantro-lime dressing is olive oil, lime juice, chopped fresh cilantro, garlic, salt and pepper.

Add dressing and eat...yummy!
