Let’s talk savvy summer veggies for a minute. It’s summer, the sun is out and so are the grills. Neighborhoods are full of the smells of cut grass and grilled meat. What about the sides? Everyone knows you can grill corn on the cob, asparagus or fresh squash, but what if you don’t grow a garden or don’t feel like picking through fresh produce at the store?
No need to worry and no need to heat up your kitchen either. All you need is a can of green beans and a few ingredients for a great-tasting side dish. Green beans go with everything, from hamburgers to pork chops and even steak. No matter what’s on the grill, with this Grilled Green Beans recipe, you can enhance your warm-weather meals. Now that’s summer savvy any day of the week.
