These vibrant green beans with pepitas offer a delightful contrast of textures and flavours, making them an excellent plant-based side dish for any occasion. By quick-blanching the beans before sautéing, you ensure they retain their bright colour and a satisfying crunch. The addition of toasted pumpkin seeds provides a nutty, savoury depth that complements the aromatic freshness of the rosemary and garlic.
This simple vegan recipe is as nutritious as it is tasty, providing a healthy dose of fibre and essential minerals. It is a versatile accompaniment that pairs beautifully with roasted root vegetables or a hearty grain salad. You can even prepare the components a few hours in advance, making it a stress-free option for busy weeknights or a structured Sunday roast.
