2 boxes (7.4 oz each) Cascadian Farm® frozen organic French-cut green beans with toasted almonds
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen® organic diced tomatoes, undrained
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper, if desired
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Cook beans as directed on boxes, reserving almonds; drain.
Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic in oil 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion is crisp-tender. Stir in tomatoes, oregano and red pepper. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and most of liquid is evaporated.
Spoon drained beans onto serving platter; top with tomato mixture. Sprinkle with cheese and reserved almonds.
Makes 8 servings (2/3 cup each).
Did You Know? Classic Greek feta cheese is traditionally made from sheep's milk, but much of what we find in the market is made from cow's milk. Either type adds a characteristic pungent, tangy flavor to dishes.
