What a great surprise. We loved the change from the norm. The orange flavor is outstanding in this dish. Thanks for posting. :) -
A new twist on beans for me! A crunchy orange twist, that is! Clever, great tasting, and fast! Thanks, BlueMoon DownUnder! Made for <b>123HW</b>. -
GREAT TASTING & EASY TO MAKE! I used bread crumbs from a winter wheat bread that's standard fare in my kitchen & that, along with the other ingredients, made for a wonderful taste experience ~ What a great way to dress up the veggies! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in 1-2-3 Hit Wonders cooking game] -
I scaled this down to 2 servings and wish I'd made more. So easy, so good. I loved the crunchy, buttery breadcrumb/zest/almond topping - really made the beans 'special' and company-worthy. A keeper.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
