Mediterranean green beans

So, there was the school picnic for the kids and we HAD to go, else there would be so many tears and flooding at home due to those tears. So my theme for the picnic was Mediterranean (No surprise there) and here is my elaborate menu.
1. Pita bread
2. Hummus
3. Sheek Kabab
4. Mediterranean roasted potatoes
5. Mediterranean green beans
6. Brownies for desert

But the green beans were my favorite this time. They take some time to cook but they were absolutely delicious. Do try them and let me know
