Have you ever wanted to make fresh green beans but changed your mind because you thought about how long it would take to clean and cut them? I have been in the grocery store and had a fresh bag of green beans in my shopping cart. I returned them to the refrigerated case and purchased the canned or frozen green beans instead.
As I’ve been trying to eat healthier and incorporate more vegetables into my diet, this practical method of cutting the tips off the green beans has been a lifesaver, saving me a significant amount of time.
DIRECTIONS
- Take about ten green beans and align all of them up against a flat surface like a ruler with the knife.
2. Cut the end off of all the green beans at the same time.
3. Align them up against a flat surface of the knife for the other side that is not cut.
4. Cut the end off of all the green beans at the same time.
5. It’s that simple. Repeat the process on the other green beans.
6. Wash and Clean/Rinse the green beans
7. Cook the green beans using your favorite recipe

Since I have been eating much healthier, I like this cutting method because now I can have a side dish that is very versatile and can be cooked every week. So, stop thinking about the time it takes to make fresh green beans and start enjoying them every week while you are reaping some of the benefits of eating healthier.
