A salty-sweet side dish sure to please veggie-lovers and sweet-tooths alike! You can normally find a good-sized bag of fresh green beans at a fruit stand or farmer's market for about a dollar. 

Yummiest Green Beans Ever

Submitted by: BellevueMama 
This dish was created out of boredom with plain, average green beans! It's sweet, tangy and savory...and my kids absolutely love it! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! I use leftover sliced deli ham since it is already sliced thin and makes perfect tiny pieces, but leftover dinner ham would be delicious also!

I learned how to make this while visiting my husband's family in Syria. It can be a healthy, fast, easy vegetarian/vegan main dish for lunch or dinner that is surprisingly filling when eaten with pita bread, or it can be a flavorful side dish.
