Notes

    • Drain the green beans. If you would like, you can also rinse them under cold water to remove any extra sodium.
    • Substitute butter with oil. If you don't want to use butter, substitute with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
    • Be careful not to over cook. You don't want the beans to turn mushy, so I recommend not cooking more than 5 minutes.
  • Store: Let the green beans cool and then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
    Reheat: Reheat in the microwave in 30 second intervals or on the stove until heated through.
