Onion and Feta Green Beans

I know, I know, the mushroom green bean casserole is a holiday favorite…but it’s not my thing. I love my green beans amazingly simple with a slight crunch. Try this, it’s extremely easy, quick, healthy, and delicious!

Shopping List

I Package of washed and prepped green beans

½ Red onion, sliced thin

1 Clove of garlic, minced

¼ Cup of Feta cheese (regular or vegan)

Sprinkle of sea salt to taste

1 Tablespoon of olive oil

Method

1. Boil green beans in a pot of water with a sprinkle of salt for 5 mins.
2. Put cold water in a big bowl. Drain green beans and place in bowl of water to stop the cooking of the beans (this will ensure that the beans keep their beautiful color and not overcook).
3. Add olive oil to a sauté pan and heat on medium. Add onion and cook for 3 minutes.
4. Add beans and garlic to the onion and toss for 3 minutes, allowing the beans to get a little color and receive flavor from the garlic, onion, and olive oil. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
