CHEESY GARLIC GREEN BEANS

- Arrange green beans on baking sheet in a single layer. Set aside.
- In a small bowl mix together olive oil, parmesan, garlic, salt and pepper. Drizzle the oil mixture over the green beans and toss to evenly coat.
- Bake for 20 minutes until vibrant and tender-crisp.

- Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve immediately.

GREEN BEANS WITH CHEESE SAUCE
Steps:
- Bring 1/4 cup water just to a boil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the green beans and salt, cover and cook for 2 minutes. Uncover, raise the heat to high and cook until the water has evaporated, about 1 minute. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the butter and continue cooking until the beans are crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk, garlic powder, dry mustard, black pepper and cayenne and cook, whisking continuously, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cheddar cheese and cream cheese and heat until melted. Pour the cheese sauce over the green beans, or serve on the side.
SMOKY BEANS AND GREENS ON TOAST
Beans and greens are great on almost every carb: in tortillas as tacos, over rice, on flatbread. They're also good without any carb at all, served in a bowl as a side. But whenever skillet-fried toast is an option, I take it. This is dinner food for me, but it also makes a good brunch with a fried egg on each plate.

Steps:
- Heat a large, heavy (preferably cast-iron) skillet over medium. Brush the bread on both sides with the olive oil. Lay the bread in the skillet and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until crisp and golden brown, about 90 seconds per side. (If your slices are large, you may have to do this in two batches.) Set the bread aside.
- Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring frequently, until it has browned a little and rendered at least a tablespoon of fat, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it has softened and turned golden, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, thyme (if using), red pepper flakes, and, if you're using canned beans, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and cook, stirring, for a minute or two.
- Add the slightly wet kale in batches, using tongs to stir the leaves into the onion mixture; wait for one handful of kale to wilt and shrink before adding the next. When the last of the greens has been added, add the beans and broth. Raise the heat and let the beans and greens simmer for a minute or two, just to warm the beans and bring the flavors together. Taste and add more kosher salt if necessary.
- Serve the greens and beans over the toast in wide, shallow bowls, dusted with a little more smoked paprika.

GREEN BEANS WITH CHEESE AND BACON
I found this among some recipes my husband's aunt sent me. I tried it once, and it became a family favorite immediately. I save it and use it in the summer when beans are freshest. Then we always have something to look forward to each summer. I often double this recipe just to have enough for my children to have leftovers! You can prepare this ahead of time, but make sure that the casserole is at room temperature before baking. I often use a mixture of both green beans and wax beans in the casserole.

TOMATO-MARINATED GREENS AND BEANS TOAST
This fresh, no-cook dish makes the most out of tomatoes by grating the flesh, which preserves all of the sweet juices and raw pulp. The natural acidity in the tomato juice, combined with capers and vinegar, create a piquant sauce that tenderizes and subdues sturdy greens. Earthy Swiss chard is used here, but other leafy greens like lacinato kale would work, as would spicy mustard greens. The lentils add a meaty bite, but red kidney beans or chickpeas would also work. Refrigerate leftovers and serve over eggs, tossed with warm pasta or as a sauce for roasted chicken or fish.

Steps:
- Working over a large bowl, grate flesh side tomatoes on the large holes of a box grater until all that's left is the tomato skin; discard skin. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups juice and pulp.) Stir in oil, capers and caper brine, shallot, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic and 1/4 cup cold water. Add Swiss chard and cherry tomatoes and mix well. Let stand for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir lentils into tomato-marinated greens and mix well. Spoon mixture over toast. Drizzle with oil, top with cheese and serve immediately.
CHEESY BEANS ON TOAST
This is my favourite version of a British classic. You can't beat beans on toast for a quick, cheap meal! It is important to use Heinz baked beans or some other brand that uses tomato sauce as the base, not barbecue sauce as is the American standard. Most US grocery stores have Heinz or Batchelors in the International aisle.

Steps:
- Put the beans in a saucepan and warm over medium heat until beginning to bubble.
- Meanwhile toast the bread.
- Once toasted, butter the bread and place slices side by side on a plate.
- Pour the heated beans over the bread.
- Scatter the grated cheese over the top and serve!
- Some people add worcestershire sauce or hot sauce over the top at this stage. Personally I like it just as it is!

Steps:
- Heat a medium-sized pan of water until boiling, and heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Add the broad beans and green beans to the boiling water. Cook for 2 mins or until just tender, then drain and remove the broad bean skins, if you like. Mix the vegetables with the pesto.
- Meanwhile, drizzle the cut side of the ciabatta with a little oil, then rub with the squashed garlic. Place, oiled-side down, in the griddle pan. Toast until charred griddle lines appear - about 2 mins.
- Place a piece of toasted ciabatta on each plate, spread with the cream cheese, then top with the pesto veg, a slice of prosciutto and a handful of rocket leaves. Drizzle with some more olive oil and serve.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a heavy-based frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 8-10 mins until softened and slightly caramelised. Add the garlic and spices, the chipotle chilli paste or chilli flakes, if using, and some seasoning. Fry for a few minutes more until the mixture is fragrant.
- Add the tomatoes, then swirl out the pan using 100ml water and add this too. Simmer for 10-15 mins until the mixture has thickened. Blitz the sauce using a hand blender, then taste for seasoning. Tip in the beans and mix well to coat. Warm through over a medium heat for 5 mins until the beans are piping hot.
- Heat the grill to high and toast the bread slices for 3-5 mins. Top with the beans and grated cheese, and pop under the grill until the cheese is melted and bubbling. Sprinkle with a little paprika and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans. Look for beans that are bright green in color and snap when you break them. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
- Trim the green beans before cooking. Remove the tough ends of the beans and any strings that may be present.
- Cook the green beans until they are tender-crisp. You can do this by boiling, steaming, or roasting them. Avoid overcooking the beans, as they will become mushy.
- Use a good quality cheese. The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or Gruyère.
- Toast the bread until it is golden brown. This will help to make the dish more flavorful and crunchy.
- Add some extra flavor to the dish with herbs, spices, or a squeeze of lemon juice.
Conclusion:
Green beans with cheese on toast is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover green beans. The combination of green beans, cheese, and toasted bread is delicious and satisfying. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that the whole family will enjoy.
