Green Beans for the Freezer

1. Wash green beans, chop the ends off, and cut into pieces.

2. Steam the beans for 5 minutes in a steamer, about half a pail at a time, then spread onto a cookie sheet and freeze immediately.

3. When frozen, put them in ziploc bags. 

To cook them for a meal, I microwave them in a dish uncovered for about 2 minutes, then stir, then another 2 minutes. I also add a wee bit of salt. You could also boil them.
