Lebanese Green Beans Lubie

My grandmother was from syria and she always made these green beans for family gatherings. i have cut the oil to one tablespon, while dieting and left out the pine nuts, and they are still awesome. they are also one of my favorite omlette stuffings, with a little feta cheese...enjoy!!
