Editors Review
This green bean dish is absulutely delicious! A simple side dish recipe made with fresh green beans, olive oil,lemon juice and toasted almonds. Double the recipe to serve more than 6 people, or just double the recipe anyway! You can steam the beans, cover and chill up to a day in advance. Coarsley chopped pecans or walnuts can be substituted for the sliced almonds if desired.Chef
