Really really yummy! My stepson even ate them, which is a challenge in itself for veggies. Thanks!

This is a great recipe! I subbed slivered almonds for the hazelnuts and omitted the cayenne pepper. I used salt pepper & thyme for seasonings in addition to the garlic & onion. Made kind of a Green Bean Almondine dish. very yummy, probably my favorite fresh green bean recipe to date!

Yum! Hazelnuts are so wonderful with green beans! Make sure to toast the nuts first- it brings out their sweet nutty flavor. I skipped the cayenne and herbs and caramelized the onions a bit. A great simple and quick side dish.

These were really good. I used thyme, olive oil, and skipped the nuts. Will be making them again. Thanks!
