DEIRDRE'S GARLIC GREEN BEANS

CAPTURED BY THE RECIPE HUNTERS

Drizzled in a delicious homemade sauce of lemon, garlic and olive oil, this green bean recipe is fantasticly delicious and healthy! Green beans are the perfect accompaniment to a big Sunday dinner of chicken, turkey, or steak. Deirdre showed us the recipe in Northern Cyprus as a side dish to her mouth-watering beef stifado. We also recommend the green beans as a breakfast meal, plated below fried eggs, and sprinkled with grated  hard sheep's cheese. Enjoy!
