These are just some green beans from the garden we have at my in-laws. I'm not a big green bean eater, and certainly don't know exactly what to do with fresh garden vegetables. I'm still learning. The only ones I really remember eating from childhood are corn on the cob. And that is pretty obvious as to preparation. Anyhow, For those like me who don't really know what to do with fresh stuff like this, this is what I did.
After washing my freshly picked beans, I prepped a pan by melting butter, and then popped my green beans in the pan. Stir fried vegetables always taste good to me. Maybe top with a little bit of salt. Nothing fancy. You can also steam fresh veggies for a fresh, crisp taste. I'm super new to this, but wanted to open the arena for fresh grown foods.
What is your favorite way to prep garden veggies?
