Green Beans with Herb Butter

With fresh green beans everywhere it seemed like a good time to share this recipe. I love them  and can’t get enough this time of year.  I like this preparation because it adds flavor and a nice twist without covering up the flavor of the beans. Fast and easy to make, too, which is always a plus.
