After a very slow start the green beans are finally producing. The tomatoes keep ripening and we are getting into the rhythm of harvesting on Sunday and Wednesday evenings. I thought I would share some favorite green bean recipes,although nothing beats fresh steamed beans. Here is a family favorite. ( this recipe was also featured on the food channel.) Not an everynight dish but definately a treat!

- 1/2 onion, sliced thinly
