Fresh Green Bean Recipe

I absolutely love the Farmer’s Market! It’s one of the reasons I don’t have a garden of my own. It’s so easy to go there and grab all of the fresh veggies I need every week!

But if you’ve ever gardened, then you know how quickly you can end up with way more vegetables than you need or know what to do with. If you have a lot of green beans and don’t know what to do with them, you can make these Buttery Garlic Green Beans!

If you really want to nail dinner this week, then serve them as a side with Saucy Vegetarian Meatballs , Tortellini Alfredo , or Black Bean Burgers !

How to Make Buttery Garlic Green Beans

Trim the ends off of 1 lb fresh green beans and place into a large skillet.

Cover them with water and let cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes. They should be tender, not mushy. Test the green beans as they cook.

Drain and return to the skillet over low heat.

Add 3 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp minced garlic. Stir for a minute and add a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
