Ingredients
1lbFresh Beans - or 2 cans of Waxed Beans, see notes
1CReserved Water - or Can liquids
1tspButter Popcorn Seasoning
1/4CButter
1tspVegeta or Salt & Pepper Blend - more or less to taste

Instructions
Weigh out 1 lb. of Fresh Beans. Wash the Fresh Beans well and then chop the ends off and then into the desired length, about the same size you get in a can.
Place the Beans into a pot and cover with water. Bring this to a boil over max heat. Once it starts to boil, lower the heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes, depending on how firm or soft you want the beans.
Drain out the Water, reserving about 1 C or enough water to barely cover the Beans.
Add in the remaining ingredients and mix. These can be served right away or if you are using the oven for the main course, they can sit on the back burner over the oven vent to stay warm and soften more before serving.
Notes
For Canned Waxed Beans, just empty everything into a Pot with the remaining ingredients and place on the back burner over the oven vent to warm while using the oven or heat to warm through. Canned Beans have a small amount of Salt in them already, so use the Butter Popcorn Seasoning, Salt & Pepper or Vegeta to taste.
