directions
- Cook your green beans fresh or frozen. If using canned skip this.

- I've done this in the oven in a casserole dish, and in a foil packet on the grill. You're basically just heating everything through.

A delicious and quick way to prepare frozen green beans. The combination of seasoning coupled with the tang of the cheese made this dish special. I drained off most of the juice from the tomatoes which were added the last few minutes of cooking the beans. The onion was minced dried onion and it worked beautifully The feta was sprinkled lightly over each individual serving. Thanks for posting.
