	Green Beans with Basil and Tomato by John Spottiswood This is an attractive and tasty side dish. The butter, basil and tomato adds a nice flavor boost to the green beans. I've made them with garlic salt and regular kosher salt, both are delicious. If you want to spice it up, add more black pepper or substitute crushed red pepper for the black pepper.	9 votes 4 reviews 3 comments 7519 views

	Buttered Brussels Sprouts by Amanda Natividad Brussels sprouts get a bad rap. Opponents of the vegetable swear it tastes like metal. Or worse, like feet.

They'd be nice as a a side with any grilled meat.	2 votes 1 review 2 comments 7644 views
