GREEK STYLE GREEN BEANS

This is an old recipe that I only tweaked a little bit so it has fewer calories and less salt than the original.  Lemon juice is actually a good substitute for salt.  For best taste quality, use fresh green beans.  

1 pound fresh green beans

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon salt (opt.)

1/2 teaspoon dried leaf oregano

Wash and stem beans.  Leave beans whole or cut into 1-inch pieces.  Cook in boiling water 8-10 minutes, or until desired tenderness.  Mix remaining ingredients  together and toss with beans.  Makes about 4 servings.
