    ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    2 cans (14.5 ounces each) Green Giant® Kitchen Sliced Green Beans, drained

STEPS

For a colorful garnish that’s a delicious complement to the green beans and onions, slice red, yellow and orange cherry tomatoes in half, toss them with olive oil and salt, and scatter them around the edge of the serving platter or bowl.

You can also garnish the beans and onions with toasted sliced almonds.
