Ethnic green bean recipes.

Another winning recipe from www.all-creatures.org. Keeping in the Greek tradition the green beans are cooked with tomatoe and potatoes.

According to my Greek friend Karen this is the way her mother would present this dish, but she says that she would consider adding some garlic and oregano to jazz it up a bit.

Greek Potatoes and Green Beans

Ingredients

3 lbs. Baking Potatoes
1-1/2 lbs. Green Beans, French cut
1 Onion, medium size, diced
1 cup Parsley, fresh, finely chopped
1-6 oz. can of Tomato Paste

Preparation

Wash and peel the potatoes and cut into 1/2" to 3/4" cubes and place in a covered baking dish. If the Green Beans are fresh, wash and cut of the stem ends and split lengthwise, and add to the baking dish. If the Green Beans are frozen, just add to the baking dish. Add the Onions and Parsley. Add the Tomato Paste and rinse the can out with a little water (1/4 can) and add to the baking dish. Cook in a microwave on high or in a regular oven at 350 degrees F. Mix the ingredients every 10 to 15 minutes. When the onions become semi translucent and the potatoes are soft remove from the oven. Total cooking time should be about 45 minutes.

Thanksgiving Dinner Recipes, Turkey Help
I took the turkey out of the freezer and put it into the refrigerator two days before Thanksgiving so that it would thaw thoroughly. I also kept an eye on it to make sure it was thawing. The day before Thanksgiving I got the turkey out, removed the giblets and rinsed it. I put the turkey back in the refrigerator.

Sesame and portobello green bean recipe
One of the wonderful things about fresh green beans is that you can add just one or two ingredients and have a fantastic dish. When you're choosing green bean recipes it's important to consider the type of green beans that you have. More mature green beans are best suited for recipes where they'll be boiled or simmered for long periods of time. .

Green Bean Salad, Provençal
This is an amazingly easy and tasty salad to showcase lovely haricots verts from the cookbook Simca's Cuisine by Simone &quot;Simca&quot; Beck. The French flair of this salad is unmistakable. We never knew that French cuisine could be so unfussy. We've made this salad many times but tend to enjoy it best when we can also showcase other produce grown right in our garden. We use our homegrown tomatoes, fennel, and basil.
