BUTTERED GREEN BEANS





BUTTERED GREEN BEANS

Simplicity itself!  Almost not even a recipe as such! My husband is always thrilled when I serve tender green beans in this very simple way. Use your favorite seasoning salt.

1 lb French green beans (0.45 kg)
  (the longer, thinner kind without strings)
Seasoning salt, to taste
2 tbsp butter (30 mL) 


Remove ends of green beans and cut them in half. In large pot of boiling water, boil green beans about 10 to 15 minutes, or until tender.  Drain green beans in colander over a large bowl.  Place green beans in serving dish, toss with Seasoning salt, to taste and place pats of butter on them.  Once butter has melted, toss green beans to coat evenly with the butter.  Serve.
