I'm just slightly embarassed to tell you this.There have been times when I'm dieting that I've been so hungry I've gone in the kitchen, opened a can of green beans, and eaten the whole thing straight from the can.

The bad news is, well, the taste, and there's a lot of sodium involved.

AMAYW* Green Beans
4 cans of green beans, drained and rinsed
1 can of low sodium tomatoes
1 can of low sodium chicken broth
2 cloves of chopped garlic
1 Tbs. brown sugar
Red pepper flakes, to taste
Throw it all in a crockpot and let it cook a few hours for the flavors to meld. Or cook on the stove for awhile, if you prefer. Store in the refrigerator; heat up in the microwave. Good hot or cold.
