Recipe of the Week - Mexican Green Beans

 Canned green beans are a staple of my pantry.  They are easy and make for a convenient side dish to most any meal.  So, I am always looking for ways to dress them up.  I found this recipe online last year and enjoyed it. It's quick and simple.  I am not exactly sure why it is called Mexican Green Beans, but it is still delicious. I hope you enjoy it!

2 cans of green beans, drained

1/2 cup chopped tomato, seeded

1/4 cup chopped onion

1 clove garlic, minced

2 Tbsp olive oil

2 Tbsp water

2 Tbsp chicken broth

1/4 tsp dried oregano

1/4 tsp cumin

S&P

Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, tomato and bay leaf. Cook until onion is tender. Add water, broth, oil, oregano, cumin and green beans.  Stir to coat the beans.  Cook until the beans are heated through.  Remove bay leaf and serve.
