Sorry! Just didn't taste like much of anything...I followed recipe exactly, minus the lemon wedge for garnish and the only one who ate more than 2 bites was DH, and he gave it a 2 star. Mine looked just like the pics, that''s why I didn't bother to take one. Recipe was easy to put together though.

    Didn't imagine something this easy could taste so great! French beans and walnuts really go wonderfully together. Next time, I'll stir the beans into the sauce, instead of the other way round... that way none of the beans get left out Also Bergy, all your veggie recipes that I've tried have that uncanny "don't-you-dare-cook-me-for-a-second-longer" crunch that's pretty darn out of this world... thanks a ton!

    Simple, but tasty. I used sliced almonds (toasted) as my nut, and added a bit of ginger powder. Delicious!
