I decided to create a blog so that I could share recipes with my family and friends :) I am very family orientated and love to spend time with them any chance I get and most of my close friends, I consider to be like family. This blog will be kept short, simple and fun. I love to cook in the kitchen and try new recipes so if you have any new ones you would like me to try....just email me or comment :)

Garlic Parmesan Green Beans

Kyle and I are huge fans of fresh green beans :) I saw this recipe and thought we should try this and change up our NORMAL way of cooking them, especially since friends were coming over for dinner.

Ingredients:
1 lb. fresh green beans
2 Tbsp. butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 Tbsp. freshly grated parmesan cheese

What to do:
  1. Remove the stems from the green beans and wash
  2. In a pot, boil water & add green beans
  3. Cook until your desired tenderness (we like ours soft, but still a little crunchy)
  4. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat
  5. Add garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 1-2 minutes
  6. Drain your green beans and then transfer to the skillet w/ butter and garlic
  7. Toss so that you coat all the green beans
  8. Season with salt and pepper
  9. Remove from heat and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese
  10. Toss again until the cheese is melted (about 1 min.)
ENJOY!!  These are very good leftover!!!


Once again, I forgot to take a picture the night before
