EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If fresh green beans seem more work than you’ve time for, you can use two 16-ounce bags of frozen cut green beans or French-style green beans. Cook as directed on the bag, then toss with the butter-honey mixture and sprinkle with almonds.

These beans were fantastic! I served them on Thanksgiving as a lighter side dish and my whole family loved them. The flavor was delicious with just the right amount of butter and sweet honey. I will be making these again.
