Directions
Heat the beans in their liquid according to the directions on the can.
Wash and dry the lettuce and arrange the leaves on a serving platter.
Pour the beans and liquid into a glass bowl.
Add red food coloring, drop by drop, until the liquid turns the color of blood.
Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the veins and place them in a veinlike pattern on top of the leaves.
Sprinkle almonds over the beans for an added bony crunch and flavor.
