Uncover and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated, 3-4 min. more. Add oil, salt, and pepper to the pan and cook, stirring, 1 min. Transfer the beans to a large bowl and toss with blue cheese until well coated. Sprinkle each serving with walnuts. From www.eatingwell.com.
