When I was first married, I wasn't a great cook. Twenty years later, I have many dishes I'm proud of, including this family favorite. Basil, oregano and Romano cheese give these beans their Italian accent. I serve them with broiled steak, pork roast, lamb chops or pork chops. -Andrea Ibzag, Gordon, Wisconsin

GARLIC ITALIAN GREEN BEANS
An easy way to prepare green beans that will usually even get those who don't like green beans to eat them :) These come a little better if you thaw the green beans first -in fridge for a few hours, or if time constricted - I have popped them in the microwave for a few minutes. The measurements for dry ingredients are approximate - you can play with them an adjust to your own taste - I usually don't measure mine. This recipe doubles well.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh green beans. If using frozen beans, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Trim the ends of the green beans before cooking. This will help them cook evenly.
- To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender.
- Immediately remove the green beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water. This will stop the cooking process and help the green beans retain their color.
- Drain the green beans and pat them dry.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add the green beans, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the green beans are heated through.
- Serve the green beans immediately.
