Green Beans with Hazelnuts and Gorgonzola

Green Beans with Hazelnuts and Gorgonzola

This dish is much healthier than its casserole counterpart. The Gorgonzola's rich, creamy texture offers a nice counterpoint to the crunchy, selenium-packed nuts. Briefly steaming the beans rather than boiling retains their vitamin C and B6 content.
