Saucy Green Beans

SERVES

COOK TIME

There's nothing wrong with plain fresh steamed green beans, but it's hard to go back to that way after trying our Saucy Green Beans!

What You'll Need

  • 1 (16-ounce) package frozen cut green beans (see Notes)
  • 2 cup spaghetti sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. Place green beans in a large saucepan and add just enough water to cover the beans. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until tender. Drain beans and return them to saucepan.
     
  2. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you prefer to use fresh green beans, trim and cut 1-1/2 pounds of beans in half; they'll have to steam or boil a bit longer before they're tender.
     
  • Go ahead and make these Parmesan Green Beans by sprinkling with grated Parmesan cheese just before serving.
