  1. We all loved these green beans! It was so easy to make and yet it really made the green beans into a special dish to serve. There was great flavor from the honey and we loved the crunch from the almonds. Thank you!
     
  2. OMG!! Never expected this to be one of my favorites for the Quest, but it sure is!! I made this using canned French Style green beans (what I had on hand) and only made 1/2 of the recipe. I made it twice, once with just the sliced almonds and then again today with toasted sliced almonds, ding, ding, ding, it's a winner. So many times the saying rings true, keep it simple. I was worried that the honey would make it too sweet for our tastes, but it is very subtle, just get a slight sweetness at the end. Toasting the almonds made a huge difference, highly recommend it, and we will be having this way from now on. Thanks so much for posting this recipe Lynn!! It's a keeper!!!

  5. This recipe is so easy and delicious. I like the flavor the honey gives to the green beans, and the crunch from the almonds is a nice textural compliment. Thanks for sharing! (Made for Aus/NZ Recipe Swap #30)
