These Greek green beans are baked with tomato, extra virgin olive oil, onion, garlic, and spices, and the dish is finished with lemon juice and garnished with fresh parsley. The first time I had this dish it also had olives in it. I ordered it with pita bread, and the bread came with some tangy tzatziki sauce on the side. The beans were melt in your mouth tender, and they had soaked up so much flavor from the sauce. This was the best green bean dish I've ever had! I ate it outdoors with a glass of white wine from the Greek island of Santorini, but unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me. When I went back to document the dish, there was no more outdoor dining, just takeout. There were no olives in my takeout dish, but the flavor was as delectable as the first time. I didn't get tzatziki sauce either, and I had to photograph the takeout dish in my car. It looks a little sloppy, but don't let that fool you.
