This recipe can be multiplied and makes good leftovers. Reheat gently so they don’t get mushy. (The beans will lose their bright color and look a little grayish. This is normal.)

Recipe Notes

There might be an argument for using a pound of beans for the amount of dressing, but we wanted to make sure that there was no feeling of any skimping on the sauce. There’s enough sauce to make this simple side dish rich and tasty. When we asked our testers to try these they said, “Wow, that’s the stuff.”
