Green Beans with Walnuts & Pomegranate

1 lb green beans, trimmed
1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
1/2 cup pomegranate arils
3 Tbs toasted pumpkin seed oil

1) In a large pan over medium heat, heat 1/2 cup of water until it's boiling. Add green beans and cover. Steam for 7 minutes, or until green beans are tender.
2) In a large bowl, layer ingredients - green beans, topped with walnuts, topped with pomegranate arils. Drizzle toasted pumpkin seed oil over the top.

Review: Oh my goodness. I thought this sounded tasty, but it's unbelievably good. I ate the entire dish by myself. It took that much to feel full, but I've also been sick and missed lunch. The toasted walnuts and the toasted pumpkin seed oil gave this a wonderfully warm flavor (and added much needed healthy fats). The pomegranate arils added a bit of sweet without being overwhelming. This was so tasty and would make a great side dish on the holidays!
