Just toss the beans whole (trimmed) in the pan on the stove with chopped tomatoes and basil, and the beans cook in the sauce/juice of the tomatoes. I let it go for longer than I'd do with the young/smaller beans, and the tomatoes help break down the beans. By the time the tomatoes are "mushy" and start to thicken, the beans should be really tender and delicious. I like to do a simmer of the bigger green beans and tomatoes.
