So easy and so good, Thanks Carla for a recipe I used at our Thanksgiving table, just that little something special to serve on a holiday. I did use frozen green beans, but they where good and don't think I missed anything in the final outcome. Everyone at the table enjoyed these, I'll certainly be making them again.

These make a nice and healthy way to prepare green beans. I used butter in place of the margarine and did sprinkle lightly with salt before serving. I like the addition of the almonds but think I would leave off the bread crumbs next time around. The bread crumbs were my Seasoned Breadcrumb Mix.
