Green beans are my favorite vegetable, especially fresh ones! Even so, I do get tired of preparing them the same way. Here are two new ways I have found to make green beans: Sesame Green Bean Salad, and Pimento Green Beans.

Green Beans With Sour Cream


2 tall cans French style green beans drained


录 cup plus parmesan cheese


1/3 cup onions


2 Tbls butter


2 Tbls flour


1 cup sour cream


Cook onions in melted butter until soft not browned. Add flour, green beans and 录 cup parmesan cheese and then sour cream. Mix all well together and put in casserole dish, sprinkle some parmesan cheese on top. Bake in 350% oven for 25-30 minutes
Here is my favorite green recipe:





Boil green beans for 3-4 minutes (they should still be crunchy), drain and immediately put in a dish with ice water (keeps their vibrant green color). Drain once cooled.





To a frying pan add a tiny drizzle of olive oil, and a tablespoon of butter. Once melted, drop in your beans and cook until heated (2 minutes or so). Turn off the heat and top with loads of grated parmesean cheese. Stir to coat the beans in the cheese and serve.
My mom used to make this for us and I hope you try it it is delicious. In a pot heat enough oil to cover the bottom of the pot. roughly chop an onion and mince a chili, lightly brown in pot. When lightly browned add garlic salt pepper and oregano. Add green beans and 3 tomatoes roughly chopped add a cup of vegetable broth or water, simmer until cooked. This recipe can be made with fresh, frozen. or canned vegetables it is so good that I may have to make some for lunch.
