These were nice green beans. I used frozen french-style green beans and really enjoyed the crushed red pepper that added a nice kick to these. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu tag. -
Made with frozen "cut" green beans as that's what I had on hand. Steamed in the microwave instead of boiling. Then placed all with spices in a pot to heat through, simple but full of flavor with the spices, the red peppers added a nice kick to the dish. -

Other than making this with canned beans, made as directed. Loved the addition of the red pepper flakes, gave this a nice twist to this. Made with recipe#475467, and well enjoyed. Made for Best of 2012 Tag. -
Great recipe. I've cooked green beans in a similar way for years, but I never used oregano in them before. Tastes even better this way. -
These were great! My husband said they tasted like fresh green beans, which is a big compliment to the recipe I think. Thanks!

I teach at both a high school and college several miles away from home. Cooking during the week is sometimes difficult to do so I'm always looking for easy recipes I can incorporate into a busy week. On weekends, you'll usually find me cooking up a storm for occassional leftovers for the week or to entertain guests.
My favorite tool to cook with... the grill. If I didn't live so close to the cities, I'd cook over an open pit fire every night.
