Sauteed Green Beans Name: Chantel Lloyd Base: MCAS Miramar Recipe: These are my favorite and cheapest way to cook green beans but they are the most delicious green beans ever. Go to commissary and get the fresh green beans. How ever many you would like to make. When home, cut the ends off the Green beans and put in sauteeing pan. Adjust the heat to however quick you want them. Once in, put butter for taste and then use 1/2 teaspoons of salt, and the same for the pepper. Throw minced garlic in for taste. I like to put some garlic powder also but if not you could pick and choose. I like them green and crispy but if not it will take about 10-15 minutes if you want them totally cooked inside and out. =]
