Spray a 5 to 7 quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.

In a medium skillet, sauté the onion over medium heat until translucent. Add the garlic, and sauté for 30 seconds.

Now add the cooked onion and garlic along with the remains ingredients into the slow cooker.

Cover and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours. The cooking time will depend on you slow cooker and how tender you want your green beans. I used frozen green beans straight out of the freezer, and I like my green beans very tender. My green beans were perfectly tender at 4 and half hours.
