Ingredients

1/2 butternut squash or 1 acorn squash, about a pound (butternut squash is the easiest to peel and cut into finger sized sticks)

Tips:

Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
Trim the beans before cooking: Remove the ends of the beans and any strings that run along the sides.
Blanch the beans before glazing: This helps to preserve their color and crispness.
Use a flavorful maple glaze: The glaze is what gives the beans their delicious flavor, so make sure to use a good quality maple syrup.
Cook the beans until they are tender: But not mushy. The beans should still have a slight crunch to them.
Serve the beans hot: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Maple glazed green beans are a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to add some color and flavor to your plate, and they are also a healthy choice.
