This recipe couldn't have been easier! The lemon really gave the beans a zing and freshened up the buttery-ness of the recipe. I will definitely keep this one in my arsenal!

    This is such a nice and easy recipe. The lemon juice really freshened up the green beans and the toasted/roasted almonds were a great touch. Thank you.

    Yum! I cut the beans into 1 inch pieces and cooked them for 10 minutes. After roasting the almonds in the butter, I added the cooked beans to the same pot and mixed it all together, so the beans borrowed some of the buttery flavour too!

    Delicious way to fix green beans! I sliced the beans lengthwise in half and par boiled them for 5 minutes. When I sauted the almomds I let the butter get a little brown then put the drained beans in the pan and mixed it all together. Great flavor!! Thanks, Karen for a great new side dish!!
