Emma's Green Beans

"Fresh picked green beans (cooked to tender), or canned, this is a long time family favorite from my mother & always requested as a side-dish at family gatherings, plus! Flavorful, colorful, delicious hot, or cold, more flavorful the next day.... and easy to make. Special note: 'Snappy Tom' is somethimes hard to find, but well worth the effort."
