sliced green beans OR 1 pkg (10 oz.) frozen (partially thawed)
2 cup fresh sliced green beans
Pepper, to taste
Salt -OR- garlic salt to taste
1/4 tsp. Dried oregano -OR- Italian seasoning
1 onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup water

Combine all ingredients except green beans. Cover and simmer 15 minutes;
uncover last few minutes and allow to simmer until sauce is thick.
Meanwhile, wash and tip fresh green beans (allow frozen beans to defrost

color will turn drab.)
