Introduction

A tasty and zippy twist on ho-hum green beens. I use Better Than Bouillon Base because it does not contain MSG, and it adds a homemade stock flavor, but regular bouillon can be used in its place. Can also use fresh snipped green beans. Just cook 7-10 minutes (until softened) in 2 cups of water and drain. A tasty and zippy twist on ho-hum green beens.
