Green Beans with Salsa

Ingredients

• Fresh green beans – 1 1b, strings removed, stem end cut off, cut into even sized pieces, approximately 2" long
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• Prepared salsa

Directions

1. Fill a medium sized pot with enough water to submerge the beans, about 2 quarts. Stir in 1 tablespoon of salt for every 2 quarts of water, then bring it to a boil. Add the green beans and cook them, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Take the pot off the heat, drain the beans, and set them aside.
2. Return the empty, dry pan to the stove over high heat and pour in the olive oil. Warm it for 1 minute, then add the beans along with about 1/2 cup of prepared salsa.
3. Toss everything together and cook for 1 minute. Taste, then add salt or a little more salsa if you’d like.
