  • 1/4 C roughly chopped cilantro

Instructions
  1. Fill a medium pot with water and bring it to a boil. Once the water is boiling, add the green beans to the pot. Boil for about 5 minutes. Immediately remove the green beans and place them in an ice bath. Set aside.
  2. In a large sauté pan on medium-low heat, add ghee, garlic, and coconut flakes. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. The garlic should be fragrant, and the coconut toasted.
  3. Add the green beans, sea salt, cilantro, and coconut aminos. Mix everything together and continue cooking an additional 3-4 minutes, until the green beans are hot.
  4. Remove from the heat and serve as a side dish to any meal.
