Recipe: Sauteed Green Beans with Garlic and Onion!

by Leave a Comment

We’re going back to basics with our Sauteed Green Beans with Garlic and Onion!

Green Beans

Can everyone say “Yum!”

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how there are a lot of people who struggle with learning about what a healthy diet looks like. Of course, there are many of us who have varying opinions about what makes up a healthy diet, but I’m sure we can agree that a diet full of convenience and convenience type foods is not included. I’m also sure we can agree that a diet that incorporates fruits and vegetables is very important.

Now, there are others who do realize this, but find it hard to eat “healthy” because it just doesn’t taste good. My goal is to share some healthy, yet flavorful foods that we all can enjoy!

With that in mind, I wanted to share a simple recipe for Sauteed Green Beans with Garlic and Onion. My husband and I love this recipe, and my kids do most of the time. Being kids, however, they do have periods of time where they dislike things they previously liked and vice versa.

You’ll also find that we like to use a lot of butter – this link will explain why! If butter isn’t your thing, you can always substitute with come coconut oil.
