Coconut Green Beans
By: A. Deume
Jan 20, 2009
Quick, easy side dish with a subtle kick. * I originally found this recipe in Jane Kirby's Glamour's Gourmet on The Run (1987), and have since simplified it and reduced the number of ingredients (I'm a cheap college student)--but I recommend checking out the original, which includes cooking with a bay leaf and mustard seeds.
