This is a great recipe for the green bean lover or hater. This is a simple recipe. I did some experimenting in my kitchen. I came up with this recipe. They have a touch of sweetness with some garlic. We love this as a side dish. They are gobbled up in no time. My family no longer hates green beans. They actually love these!
