Green Beans With Dried Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh green beans I used half of a pack of the fresh organic green benas from Costco
  • 1 cup pureed oven dried tomatoes
  • 1 or 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 or 5 cloves fresh garlic
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place green beans in a nonstick skillet, drizzle with a little olive oil....not too much because the tomatoes have oil in them also....and season it with as much pepper as you like.  The oven dried tomatoes also have salt in them so avoid using any extra salt unless you like that sort of thing. 

    Next, puree about a cup of oven dried tomatoes with the garlic cloves in a blender and pour them over the beans.  Toss them with tongs as they cook for about 10 to 15 minutes while they are still a kelly green in color.
