Simple Lemon Green Beans

Summer is gone, Fall is here, I’m going to miss all the fresh produce.

1 pound green beans, trimmed

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 garlic clove, pressed

1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

a few good squeezes of lemon

salt and pepper

1  Bring a large pot of water to boil.  Boil green beans about 2 – 4 minutes so that they are still a vibrant green and a bit crunchy.

2  Mix together olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

3  Drain green beans and toss with dressing.
