These Green Beans are outstanding and I believe I wasn’t the first to demand the recipe. They are delicious. You won’t have a problem eating 2 pounds of green beans without any help. Seriously.
Zesty Green Beans
- Fresh green beans – 1 1b (strings removed, stem end cut off, cut into even sized pieces, approximately 2" long)
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- Prepared salsa the fresher the better
- In a large sauté pan, bring to a boil enough water to cover the beans. Add the beans and boil with the pot uncovered for 5 minutes. Remove from stove, strain out the remaining water, place beans in a serving bowl.
- Put the pan back on the stove over high heat and add the olive oil. Let this heat up for 1 minute, then toss in the beans and about 1/2 cup of prepared salsa. Toss to combine and saute 1 minute. Add salt or more salsa to taste.
*If using store bought salsa ensure it contains less than 5 g of sugar per serving.
