One of my preferred fresh green bean recipes is sautéed green beans with onion. Additionally delicious with bacon or slivered almonds.

This recipe is absolutely perfect – healthy, delicious, easy to prepare. It’s a go-to for me these days!
Simple and tasty!
We like our green beans crunchy so I only boiled for 5 minutes. Not sure what made this so special but something did. I make a lot of green beans and my husband praised these more than he typically praises the vegetable. This was super simple too so that is always a bonus. Thanks for sharing!
