Garlic Sautéd Wax Beans

larger view

In an attempt to avoid wasting the delicious, organic, locally-grown yet unfamiliar goods in my Abundant Harvest basket each week, I've decided to try new recipes and get aquainted with new foods. Wax beans for instance. How different from green beans could they be? Delightfully different — these beans had a lemony taste, and I found myself enjoying each bite!

• 1/2 pound wax beans, ends trimmed
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 3 garlic cloves, crushed
• Parsley, minced

Steam or boil the beans for 5 minutes, then drain.

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the garlic, cooking for a minute. Add in the beans and sauté for a minute before adding the parsley. Cook for a minute more than shift to a serving plate.
