Tips and Variations:

• Use 1 - 16 to 20 ounce bag of frozen green beans, 2 - 9 ounce packages of frozen green beans, 2 - 14 to 16 ounce cans, or about 1 1/2 pounds of fresh green beans for this recipe.
• If using fresh green beans follow these easy tips. Refrigerate unwashed fresh green beans in an airtight container for up to four days.
• To quickly cut fresh green beans, bunch together a handful and cut crosswise or diagonally into 1 inch pieces.
• When cooking, bring out the flavor by adding a pinch of sugar to the cooking water. Cook until tender crisp, but not overdone.
• Here's a tip! A woman who has worked at a fresh vegetable market for years told me that just mixing fresh steamed green or yellow beans with the undiluted cream of mushroom soup and heating it up is delicious. I haven't tried that yet, but if you are in a hurry it sure sounds worth a try.
