"From EatingWell May/June 2009. One of my favorite sides! Great made with haricot verts, but in a pinch, I've even made this recipe with whole frozen beans. Cook time includes time to toast walnuts."

Transfer the beans to a large bowl or serving platter, and toss with blue cheese until well coated.
