Healthy Recipe: Garlicky Green BeansDon't be concerned about the amount of garlic used here. Boiling mellows and sweetens its sharp flavor. Serves: 4 Prep: 17 min Cook: 18 min Total: 35 min Ingredients 6 whole cloves garlic, peeled
    1 pound  green beans, trimmed
    2 tablespoons  fresh lemon juice
    1 teaspoon  extra-virgin olive oil
    1/8 teaspoon  ground black pepper
Directions Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 10 minutes, or until softened when pierced with the tip of a knife. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in a small bowl. Add the beans to the water. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the beans are crisp-tender. Drain and return the beans to the pot. Mash the garlic with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice, oil, and pepper. Pour over the beans and toss to coat. Recipe Tips To easily remove the skin from a clove of garlic, cut the root end off and firmly press (or carefully smash) the flat side of a wide knife blade down on the clove. The skin will loosen and the clove will easily slip out. Nutritional Facts per serving Calories 54.4 cal
