GREEN BEANS AGLIO OLIO (WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL)

Steps:

• Steam beans over a pot of boiling water, or in a veggie steamer, for about 5 minutes.
• Feel free to steam more or less, depending on how your family likes their veggies cooked.
• Keep in mind that you will also be sautéing the beans in the next step.
• In a large saute pan, heat olive oil.
• Add the garlic and saute for about 45 seconds to impart its flavors into the oil.
• Before the garlic begins to brown, add the red pepper flakes and green beans to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes, or until cooked to your liking.
• Season with salt and pepper and serve.

LEMON STRING BEANS

• Sauté: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add green beans and garlic. Toss (or stir!) for 2 minutes until the garlic is golden and crispy. Add salt and pepper, then toss.
• Serve: Transfer beans to serving dish. Serve warm!
• Prepare ahead: Blanch beans per step 1, cool and dry, store in fridge until required. When ready to serve, just toss with garlic. It's an instant on-demand side!
