Directions
Easy Buttered Green Beans and Carrot Sticks, This is easy to make and the perfect veggie side dish to compliment your holiday table, and the combination of colours is very pretty! This recipe will serve around 6-8 people but it can be doubled The beans and carrot sticks can be boiled hours in advance, just leave them in the ice water in the fridge until ready to saute in butter I most always sprinkle with sliced toasted almonds, or even peanuts when serving this at my table, but that is optional , Can this bean and carrot recipe be served at room temperature? I am taking it as a guest to a holiday meal for 13 people Don’t know if I’ll get any oven or stovetop space at my hosts’ Thanks!!, Simple yet yummy side dish used a pound of frozen green beans and a bag of matchstick carrots I cooked the veggies in the microwave and then sauted them I only used 3 tablespoons of butter and no olive oil, then seasoned them I didn’t add the optional nuts as my family isn’t fond of nuts in their veggies Quick and easy!
