and chill. Cut green beans into thirds, and arrange in a
steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam 15
minutes or until green beans are crisp-tender. You can also
microwave in a small amount of water for about the same
length of time in a covered microwave safe dish. Immediately
plunge green beans into cold water to stop cooking process;
drain and pat dry. Combine walnuts, beans, onion, and cheese
