Lemon Garlic Green Beans

Side dishes can start to get pretty boring after a while. You can get into a routine of making the same vegetable all the time because it's quick and easy. Well, this string bean recipe shows you just how simple a side dish can be and still have a great flavor.

              

To make this a very quick dish, I used microwaveable green beans. If using regular green beans, make sure to blanch them first for about 3 minutes. All you need to do is combine the green beans, fresh squeezed lemon juice, garlic powder, and sesame seeds in a pan. Cook until warmed through and season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper. This is a great side dish for pretty much everything. Serve it with fish, chicken, steak, or tofu, and enjoy!

Recipe:
1 Bag Microwaveable Green Beans
Juice from 1 Lemon Wedge
1 Tsp Sesame Seeds
1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
Season with salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper
