Italian Green Beans & Tomato

January 3, 2015 by Angela LeMoine 4 Comments

Italian Green Beans with Tomato | LeMoine Family Kitchen  #vegetables #greenbean #easy #italian

 

There are so many dishes that remind me of my grandparents, these Italian Green Beans & Tomato are definitely one of those dishes! As in most of my grandparents cooking, these are really simple, not much to them but absolutely delicious! A handful of ingredients, a couple simple steps and thats it! 

A funny thing about my grandparents and vegetables… when veggies were cooked, they were really cooked! The term al dente in reference to vegetables was non existent. My grandmother loves her veggies well done and honestly in this dish, it works… maybe its a nostalgic thing but it works.

These are great as a side dish to a roast beef, chicken cutlets or a simple roast pork. I’ve also made them tossed with pasta.

    I love eating green beans. I know this may sound weird but a couple nights for dinner I’m just going to have veggies. I do believe these would make the cut. Thanks for sharing & happy Sunday!
