This recipe is from my Grandmother's cookbook she made to pass to all her grandchildren. They come out very, very crisp with a wonderful dill flavor. The red pepper flakes give them a nice punch. They are much better than the recipes that call for cooking the beans first. 

Marinated Green Beans with Olives, Tomatoes, and Feta

Just like the name of the dish implies, this recipe makes a lovely side dish of green beans, kalamata olives, and tomatoes. These items are tossed with red wine vinegar, garlic, and oregano before being finished with a sprinkling of feta cheese. Allow the flavors to marinate together overnight for even better results.

IN THE SOUTH, we call a dish like this 'comfort food'. We serve it with corn bread, and they go great together. I make this as a side dish with any of my favorite entrees. It's so simple to prepare I can serve it up in no time. -Nancy Reichert, Thomasville, Georgia
