- 3/4 cup finely chopped onion

- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, optional (I like Jane's Crazy Mixed UP salt)
Instructions
- Ideal slow cooker size: 2-Quart.
- Coat your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine the green beans, onion, salsa, brown sugar, olive oil and garlic salt in the slow cooker.
