Ingredients

1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil

1/4 pound snow peas, trimmed and strings discarded
2 tablespoons shelled sunflower seeds, toasted lightly

Directions

  1. In a small bowl whisk together the vinegar, the oil, and salt and pepper to taste. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook the green beans for 4 minutes, add the snow peas, and cook the vegetables for 30 seconds.
