Clean green beans and tear off ends if desired.

I made 2 cups of green beans just enough for 2 people..My DH liked these beans ,I thought they were o.k. for a change..

I'm not rating it, but I need to say that this recipe needs some tweaking. I find it hard to understand why you say that this serves 4 when there are NO amounts listed? I would say that this is not a recipe so much as a method. And that's okay. I have some like that, but I explain that in the description so people don't get confused. I should have really read this recipe several times and thought it through before I tried to make it for dinner.

Deanne came up with a good recipe--the melding of the lemon pepper and powders works well. A nice change, and if you've got the beans, you're sure to have everything else on hand too. So easy.

These were sooo good! I was unsure of the lemon pepper, but I am so glad that I added it. I could never go back to "plain" beans again...thanks for sharing!

Holy yumminess!!! These were so tasty I had to hold myself back from eating them all! Nice rich full flavor and the lemon pepper was wonderful in it. This was not only delicious but also fast (which works well for me since I always remember that I need to make veggies at the last minute)! Thanks for submitting this one!
