Recipe: Fresh Green Beans (2 recipes!)

August 11, 2011

I happen to love fresh green beans. (My favorite is how my Grandma makes them) BUT I wanted to try some new recipes with them. Here are 2 recipes!

Green Beans with Parmigiano Reggiano

♦ 1 pound green beans, trimmed and left whole or cut diagonally in half (4 cups)
