Every season is grilling season! Why not throw the veggies on the grill and free up the oven. This recipe is a light alternative to green bean casserole around the holidays and a perfect pair for any of your grilled proteins. Packed with flavor and texture, this is one of my faves!

1 lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed
1/4 cup preserves (peach or apricot work best)
