Cheesy Garlic Green Beans Directions:
- Begin by blanching the green beans in a pot of boiling salted water for about 3-4 minutes, just until they start to soften. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!" spread over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the blanched green beans to the skillet, tossing to coat them in the garlicky butter spread. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the beans are tender but still crisp.
- Sprinkle the fat-free Parmesan cheese over the beans, stirring to combine evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Finally, sprinkle the fat-free mozzarella cheese over the top of the beans. Cover the skillet for a minute or two until the cheese melts and bubbles.
- Serve warm, allowing the cheese to slightly cool for added texture.
