Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Salt to taste
1 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
3 medium-size tomatoes, peeled, cored, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 2 cups)
1 bay leaf
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring enough water to a boil to cover the beans when added. Add salt and the beans, and cook 5 to 10 minutes or until tender. Drain.
  • Heat the butter in a skillet or casserole, and add the garlic. When it is wilted and starting to brown, add the tomatoes, salt and bay leaf. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes, and add the beans and pepper. Stir to blend well. Remove the bay leaf and serve.
