I just tried this quick recipe on some thin green beans I have had in my freezer and was unsuccessful in the past at preparing them. This was absolutely great!! I used frozen diced onion, some minced garlic (actually Outragously Garlic by Two Sisters gourmet through Partylite), salt, cracked pepper and olive oil. Ahhhh much better....
