Green beans are one of my favorite vegetables. During the summer they take up the most room in my garden and of course, I can them for the winter. I love finding new sweet and savory ways to cook them.
I don’t know about you, but if you’re being good and eating your green beans, you may as well make a treat of them. These beans sautéed in butter and maple syrup are tender, sweet and delicious. Give them a try!
