EASY Garlic & Onion Sautéed Green Beans (Served with Smoked Chicken and Smoked Baked Potatoes)

Hi and welcome back to The Kneady Homesteader channel and tonight, we are sautéing up some fresh green beans. I like to add sweet onions and garlic to mine, but you feel free to add or take away as you like. This video is simply to maybe inspire you..... I remember learning how to cook green beans. My mom only made Green Giant green beans from a. can as I was growing up. I have learned a lot about cooking from my Dad as an adult, and I am so grateful. God bless and down below are some links to the items I used:

Yes hanging out in the garden would be awesome!❤

[@jaydasmom03]

Your dinner looked delicious! You are always in my prayers. You don’t know what a blessing you have been to me. Your love for God has been a source of strength for me! Many blessings to you and your family.

[@theresataylor6675]

I remember sitting on the front porch with my grandma snapping beans to can. I used to think that was the worst way to spend my time as a child, but now I long for those times. I'm glad I have that memory.❤

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

isn't that crazy how we miss those types of things so much as we age. I long for them too, Sis. What a great memory to hold onto and cherish. SO much love to you!

[@northerngirlhobbies]

Oddly enough, I do not have memories because I didn’t have much of grandparents growing up. I’m in my 40s. Cherish those memories and keep the traditions going. 🌱💚

[@theresataylor6675]

@northerngirlhobbies sorry about your grandparents. I'm much older than you, and in my growing up years, it was not abnormal to have several generations living in the same household. It's never to late to make memories with family or friends 🧡

Me too! I'll never forget those precious memories 😉❤

what great memory to have! I just planted "mixed" beans.... yellow and green! So excited!

[@marycook1644]

Heather, I grew up with a mom who didn’t really like vegetables. She would serve them, but from a CAN !! She cooked the canned green beans with 🥓for a long time. I loved them ! After my sister got married and moved to Minnesota she had a produce garden. She cooked fresh green beans. I didn’t really like them. The next day after cooking the leftovers, then I liked them. Cause they were a little more liked canned ones !!! Blessings from California ! 🦃

[@lindavip]

This is similar to how I was taught to prepare my greenbeans by my "elderly" neighbor when I was in my early 20's. I'm her age now (70's) 😅. She fried bacon in the pan first, and used the bacon and the grease instead of garlic and butter. NO WATER like yours. LOVE them cooked that way!!

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

The water ruins it, right? hahaha They gotta have a bite to them! I love that story, thanks for sharing it with me. Memories!!!! God bless, Linda.... you do NOT look like you are in your 70's!!!!!!

My church gives away Panera bread and often they'll be other things that people want to offer up. This Sunday there was a bag of green beans and homegrown brussel sprouts. Think I'll make these green beans but just don't like jarred garlic. It tastes fermented to me. Wish I liked it because it's so much easier to use.Your meal looks awesome for you to think of your neighbor! You are so thoughtful ❤

I remember sitting on our carport with my mom and snapping beans. I loved her green beans cooked with fat back and cooked for hours. 😂😂😂😂. I can still hear my mom telling my dad “I put a mess beans on and I’m cooking the life out them”. He hated green beans if they were the crunchy kind or if the tasted like a tin can because they weren’t cooked enough

Your recipe sounds and looks delicious but, I don't think I've ever seen anyone cut them with scissors. We just snap ours or use a knife to trim the ends. You might consider making green bean bundles wrapped with bacon in the center of the bundle and then dressing them with a marinade before roasting. Our family LOVES them.😊

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

that sounds soooo good! Yeah, I have adjusted how I do things a bit due to my severe hand injuries and their challenges now. Shears are just easier on them :) I don't have a working thumb on my right hand so I can't hold a knife to veggies anymore :( Miss my hands prior to my accident.

A canning question? If I have alot of canned peaches left can they be sealed in Mason jars with ever seal?😊

[@TheKneadyHomesteader]

but they are home canned already? in order to be shelf stable and safe, it would have to be water bath canned, I would can them in a light simple syrup. You can use the a hand held sealer if you want to push out air and put them in the fridge, but otherwise it needs to be water bath canned...which isn't a big deal!

[@CrowShadow]

About the baked potatoes: how long do you smoke them & at what temperature? Do you also baked them after smoking them? It looked like they were salt-coated; did you do that before smoking or after? Thanks for any feedback.

All explained at the end of the video 🥰 and no baking afterwards. Just an hour and a half of the smoker on that top rack 🥰 but at the end of the video I explain exactly what I do and answer all of these questions for you. 😁
