If they are already cooked, you only need to steam them long enough to make them hot again, maybe 15 minutes at most
5-7 minutes till tender. Longer then 10 and the chemical sinigrin may be released resulting in the nasty taste they are known for.
Really, you should never microwave food. By taking wonderful, healthy vegetables and putting them in the microwave, you are zapping out all of the healthy, living, beneficial nutrients you are eating the vegetables for! Steaming is the way to go, on stovetop, or in a pan with a little filtered or otherwise purified water. Eat & Live Well!

One cup of fresh green beans with a bit of water takes about 3-4 minutes to cook in a microwave oven. Increase time by about 2 minutes for each cup of beans, checking frequently for done-ness. Canned green beans only need about 2 minutes to warm 2 cups with a bit of liquid.
It takes about 8 mn. The color of the bean becomes bright green, it is then cooked "al dente"
I like to blanch them for about 3 minutes, then cool them with ice water. Then I saute to finish using a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to taste.
Fresh green beans should not be held much longer than 2 or 3 days in your fridge. You can blanch them and freeze them, they should last about a month or so if you freeze them.
until they are just tender
Boil them for about 10 to 12 mins.

As a lone dish green beans can be steamed, sauteed, baked, fried, or even eaten raw. As part of a larger dish there are hundreds of ways to prepare a meal with green beans.
Yes, it is safe to use bouillon as the liquid for canning green beans, but it would be better to can them in water and cook them in the bouillon later.

I would make 75 pounds of fresh green beans for them.
How you cook the beans won't matter. If there are only a few brown spots, you may not notice any taste problems at all. If there are alot, the beans may taste bitter. This will be true however they are cooked.
