Salt and pepper to taste (optional)

Cut eight 1/2 inch-thick slices of squash; hollow out with spoon to within 1/4 inch of rind.
To make bean bundles, thread stacks of beans through squash pieces as if each piece were a napkin ring.

Bring to a boil over high heat; steam 4 minutes or until beans turn bright green and are crisp-tender.

Transfer bean bundles to warm serving plate and pour oil mixture over top.
Season with salt and pepper.
Garnish, if desired.
