  4.2 – 27 reviews  • Green Beans

This is a quick and scrumptious side dish. The 10-minute cook time is merely a recommendation; continue cooking the green beans as long as you want them.

Jocelyn Martinez
Loved it. Quick and easy. I had some mushrooms left from earlier in the week, and I was making it to please my wife, who likes mushrooms, so I added them too.
Kimberly Vasquez
Great, quick side dish. Used Italian stewed tomatoes.

This was better than I expected, for a fairly simple recipe. I made it exactly as written, except that the can of green beans was .5 oz. smaller than specified, and the tomatoes .5 oz. bigger. I was polishing off a jar of Italian seasoning, so only used slightly less than a teaspoonful of that. The recipe didn’t say so, but I thought that the green beans needed to be drained – I poured out a lot of liquid from that can, and the final result still had enough liquid to it. I couldn’t decide what to have this “side dish” with, so I just ate the whole thing for lunch/dinner. It was surprisingly tasty, and probably pretty healthy too. I liked this a lot!
Charles Hernandez
Very easy side dish. Next time I might make it with fresh green beans.
Aaron Walker
This recipe is simple, quick, and a nice combination of beans and tomatoes. I don’t like canned vegetables because fresh or frozen always taste much better (using canned ingredients in this recipe is why I gave it a four instead of five star rating). The first time I made this recipe, I used fresh green beans and tomatoes from my garden but in the off-season, I use frozen green beans.
Mario Jones
this turned out pretty tasty, i put in some italian salad dressing

I gave it 4 because I couldn’t figure out how to give 3.5. I liked the contrast of the sweet tomato with the beans, but I felt like something was missing; not sure what.
James Smith
It is amazing how something so simple and easy can be so tasty. Of the four of us eating Christmas dinner, only one person said they were good but they didn’t care for them. The rest of us loved them.
Jimmy King
very good I would give it 4 star. I made it the way the recipe called for but I just added one little thing after I was done cooking I sprinked just a little permesan cheese not a lot . my family thought it was really good and I partnered it up with the Grilled lemon pork chops was very good together thanks for the help in the kitchen

Made these one night for my family as a quick dinner side. I made it without the almonds because I was feeding it to my 14 month old. He doesn’t always enjoy whole vegetables yet, but he devoured these tomatoes & beans & kept asking for “more!” I will certainly make this again. Husband & I both thought it gave the beans a good flavor.
Sandra Little
maybe it’s just me, but these beans were not that great. I follower the recipe and they were still very bland. I had to add salt/pepper at the table.
Mr. Bruce Moore
I used Italian spiced stewed tomatoes and since my oven was already on I baked this dish for about 20 minutes. Easy!
Zachary Perez
This was very tasty and easy recipe. I used fresh Green Beans cause they have more of a crunch and I also added a little bit of feta cheese once it was on my plate…very yummy!
Stephen Lee
Noone cared for these at all. I made it against my better judgement and it was bland and the texture was not a favorable one.Will not make again.
Brandon Harrison
Yum! I used frozen green beans, next time I will try it with fresh ones. Added onions and shallots and it was really tasty!
John Gill
These are good. I used frozen green beans because I don’t care for canned. Had to add a little salt to them. A nice change for green beans, thanks!
Philip Love
The best recipe. I use it all the time.
Joseph Arellano
didnt care for this much. added to cans of green beans. wont make it again
Summer Mccormick
Super easy, great tasting recipe even my 4 and 6 year old kids loved! I used peeled crushed tomatos instead of the larger stewed tomatos.
Craig Mitchell
I normally don’t like green beans, but wanting to add a nice, tasty, and healthy side I figured I’d give it a try and boy was I hooked.
Gordon Dodson
Not so great. I used frozen green beans, so they weren’t so mushy and ommitted the almonds since my husband doesn’t like nuts. In order to get good flavor, you need to have bean and tomato in each bite. A little too bland.
