SYRIAN GREEN BEANS WITH FRESH HERBS
This is how my mom always made green beans. She got the recipe from a neighbor when we lived in Turkey. Make a double batch as they make an excellent healthy snack straight from the fridge. Add a thinly sliced onion and red bell pepper if you like. -Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho

FASOLIYYEH BI Z-ZAYT (SYRIAN GREEN BEANS WITH OLIVE OIL)
I learned how to make this while visiting my husband's family in Syria. It can be a healthy, fast, easy vegetarian/vegan main dish for lunch or dinner that is surprisingly filling when eaten with pita bread, or it can be a flavorful side dish.

Steps:
- Place the green beans into a large pot, and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt to taste, and put the lid on the pot. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until beans are cooked to your desired doneness. Syrians like it cooked until the green beans are turning brownish in color. The idea is not to saute them, but to let them steam in the moisture released by the ice crystals.
- Add cilantro and garlic to the beans, and continue to cook just until the cilantro has started to wilt. Eat as a main course by scooping up with warm pita bread or serve as a side dish.

BRAISED GREEN BEANS WITH TOMATOES AND CILANTRO
Summer tomatoes are a thing of beauty, but what if you're wanting to take a (short) break from all those caprese salads? Try this Spanish-inspired-side that braises chopped fresh tomatoes alongside sturdy romano beans; the tomatoes bring a welcome burst of acidity and a touch of sweetness to the final dish.
