Grandma's Italian Style Green Bean Recipe

Grandma made everything simple back when I was growing up the foods were prepared with whatever we had in the house and she used to pick green beans in the fields, this is her recipe for the 1950s.

Olive oil, garlic, and herbs were staples to use so if you're looking for a simple side dish this would be the easiest green bean recipe you'll ever make.

Easy steamed fresh from the farmers market, homegrown, the beans are always delicious.

These do not have vinegar, just olive oil, and garlic, that's how she made them and we love these old Italian vintage recipes.
