This is another of my mother in law's Christmas specialties that she's passed along to me. Very easy, very pretty, and can be made ahead of time. Make sure your beans and red pepper are very fresh and blemish free for the best presentation.

[email protected]This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add some garlic and chili pepper to the sauce for a little more flavor.
