Cheaters Green Beans image

This recipe for canned green beans tastes as close to fresh beans that have cooked all day, that you can get from a can. I use organic green beans which I think make this dish even better. I prefer fresh to canned any day. But when you are in a hurry and don't have hours to snap and cook beans this recipe is a great alternative
