GREEN BEANS WITH SESAME & GARLIC



Green Beans with Sesame & Garlic image

These are green beans with attitude. I think I got the recipe from Vegetarian Times, and it's never missed yet when served alongside a nice piece of fish or tuna steak. I like to cook the beans early in the day so I can throw it together in a snap at mealtime. I also use more garlic.
