Green Beans With Lemon And Almonds

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Very nice. Simple (I took Kittencal's suggestion and blanched the beans the day before and refrigerated them so preparation on the holiday was fast and easy). used 4 Tbsp. butter and about 1/2 cup almonds and it seemed perfect. Everyone really enjoyed them. I didn't realize until now that I forgot to add the parsley (ugh!) but I'll be sure to do it next time...because there will be a next time! Yumm!

    Green Beans With Lemon and Almonds,This green bean dish is absulutely delicious! Double the recipe to serve more than 6 people, or just double the recipe anyway LOL!. You can steam the beans, cover and chill up to a day in advance. Coarsley chopped pecans or walnuts can be substituted for the sliced almonds if desired.,Very nice. Simple (I took Kittencal’s suggestion and blanched the beans the day before and refrigerated them so preparation on the holiday was fast and easy). used 4 Tbsp. butter and about 1/2 cup almonds and it seemed perfect. Everyone really enjoyed them. I didn’t realize until now that I forgot to add the parsley (ugh!) but I’ll be sure to do it next time…because there will be a next time! Yumm!,Kittencal has the best recipes. I made this for a family potluck and doubled the recipe. I made it as written. It was a big hit. I think the next time I make it, however, I will decrease the almonds. We ended up with most of the almonds in the bottom of the bowl.
