GREEN BEANS

Something essential to have a quick and easy side dish in your cooking library is a side that goes with crispy boneless chicken, pan seared fish, braised lamb shanks, juicy beef brisket AND Chicken Tikka Masala. A veggie to enjoy as a healthy snack in between meals: garlic green beans are perfect for any situation.

Not only are green beans a good source of fibre, folate and potassium, they are an excellent source of iron, protein and zinc, with anti-oxidants similar to those found in green tea. Catechins can improve heart health and help prevent cancer and manage/prevent diabetes.*

HOW DO YOU MAKE GREEN BEANS TASTE GOOD?

Only a handful of ingredients are needed to make these green veggie stalks taste amazing:

  • Garlic
  • Olive oil (sub with melted butter)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Parmesan cheese (Romano cheese, Asiago or Manchego can also be used).

This garlic green beans recipe is extremely forgiving and versatile. Completely make it your own and have the best green beans on the table in no time. Spice them up with a shake of Cayenne, chili powder or curry powder (leave out the parmesan if going with that last option).

    These were freaking delicious and so simple to make. I used butter instead of Olive oil and didn’t measure any of my ingredients, but the flavor was on point! Saving this recipe for future use.
