This is just yummmm, fast & serves as a nice foil for a more unctuous meal (think pork ragu) or as part of a lighter meal allround.

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb fresh green beans or 1 lb frozen green beans
1/4 cup onion, chopped (or use frozen chopped onion)
2 garlic cloves, minced

1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 pinch red pepper flakes, crushed
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds, shelled
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
