Steps:
- Toss green beans in boiling water for 3-4 minutes, until bright green and still crunchy.
- Drain and "shock" in ice water to stop cooking.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Olive oil cooking spray works just as well, if you want to shave a few calories.
- Add beans and saute for 1-2 minutes, until heated through. It's okay if some of the beans brown up a bit.
- Transfer to serving dish.
- Squeeze lemon halves over the beans and toss to coat.
- Add salt to taste. (I omit this step).

LEMONY GREEN BEANS
Every summer, Pop raises green beans and I love them. I'm always on the lookout for other ways to fix them in place of cooking them with bacon until soft, even though that is my favorite. Gotta have something different every once in a while. Lemon goes so well with green beans and this recipe sounded like a wonderful way to use fresh green beans. Source: First Magazine

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it (for this, the same water may be used as that in which the potatoes have been blanched); add the beans, and cook until they are just bright green and tender, about 5 minutes.
- Drain the beans, then plunge them into a large bowl filled with ice water, to stop the cooking. When they're cool, drain them again. Zest the lemons, and julienne or mince the zest. Juice the lemons.
- To serve, place the oil in a large skillet, and turn the heat to medium high. Add the beans, and cook, tossing or stirring, until they are hot and glazed with the oil, 3 to 5 minutes. Toss the beans in a serving bowl with the lemon juice, top with the zest, and then serve.
