I thought these were really good, but my husband didn't like them at all (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). He asked me not to make them again. Thanks anyway -
Delightful recipe - Easy to prepare and Oh so good - served with ham steaks. I used a no sugar marmalade Definitely make again recipe -
Oh gosh paula these beans are wonderful! I made this with frozen whole beans, and increased the garlic and marmalade...I can't wait to try this recipe using fresh beans, an easy and delicious recipe, thanks for sharing!...Kitten:) -
Oh my. What a wonderful side to brighten up the dinner plate. Have to confess that I used Molly McButter in lieu of the real stuff to keep this on track with my WW program. Even so, it was delicious enough that I've made this two days in a row, once with grilled chicken, once with pork chops. On the second night I added about a 1/2 teaspoon of minced ginger that worked so well with the orange and rosemary. Thanks Paula. -
I could not be happier with the way this side dish turned out! The orange marmalade is a wonderful glaze medium for green beans! The slightly sweet glaze is a perfect complement to the beans. The orange flavor is not overpowering and the combination with the rosemary (I used fresh rosemary) is a pairing that really enhances the green beans. They would be a great side dish for chicken, seafood or even pork. Your directions were easy to follow and the beans were perfectly cooked with a nice slight crunch and texture. I couldn't find a negative thing to say about this easy, fast, and delicious green bean recipe. Total 5 Stars!

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
