Southern Green Beans {Keto Friendly/Low Carb}
We still eat green beans at least once a week, and over the years I have perfected my recipe so that they taste so much like my grandmother's. I've never actually measured what I put in them until last week after I had gotten so many comments asking how I prepared mine. Now that I have it written down, I thought I'd share with you.

Course: Side Dish
Cuisine: American
Servings: 14
- 4 cans 14.5 oz of cut green beans
- 2 Tablespoons of olive oil or bacon grease whatever you have handy
- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- 1 Tablespoon Italian Dressing doesn't matter what kind
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp dried minced onion
- salt to taste
Dump all of the ingredients in a pan and bring to a boil.
Boil uncovered until almost all of the juice has evaporated.
You can boil on medium/high so that they will be ready faster (approx 35 - 45 minutes) or boil on medium to low for an hour or longer depending on how much time you have available.
Stir occasionally. The beans will begin to fall apart as the juice cooks out. It is normal.
Salt to taste.
Enjoy!
