These quick steamed green beans are a family favorite! We love them, the kids love them, they're just so easy and the best. You can whip them quickly to have an easy side dish for any meal. I feel like steamed food gets a bad rep, but honestly I love steamed veggies. The trick is to make sure you add plenty of good olive oil or butter and lots of seasoning. It makes all the difference and brings out the flavor of the veggie in the best way!
