Yes!!! I could literally eat a big bowl of these green beans as an entire meal. I’ve been grilling a lot lately and craving fresh vegetables… these are the perfect side dish to just about any main dish.
Healthy deliciousness right here! 
This recipe calls for crushed red pepper flakes… I used 1/4 teaspoon, but if you can take the heat, add more to your liking.
I like these beans crisp-tender so I sautéed them for about 7 minutes. If you like yours more tender, sauté them for an additional couple of minutes.
Enjoy!
