Wax Beans

I had an over load of beans recently.  I eat them, and one of my girls will eat them happily (the other eats them unhappily).   But there were too many for us, so, I decided to freeze them for later. I blanched them according to their proper timing (3 minutes) and vacuum sealed them.  Two pounds all set!  Last year I noticed a complete lack of whole veggies.  I didn't have anything that could just be eaten on the side of the plate.  It all had to be put into a soup or casserole, so I'm trying to be a little more mindful of preserving things that are in their entirety and hold up well to the freeze. 

Viola! All ready for the freezer!
