- 4 teaspoons half-and-half cream
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon crumbled blue cheese
- 1 1/2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pinch sugar
- 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
- Place the first eight ingredients in a blender; cover and process until combined. Gradually add oil in a steady stream, processing until smooth; set aside. Place the beans in a large saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain and place in a serving bowl. Drizzle with the blue cheese mixture and sprinkle with bacon.
