Almond Green Beans

This is a super easy side dish but has loads of flavor. If you are anything like me and need a little something extra to eat your veggies then this is one option. It is best to use fesh or frozen green beans as the canned just would not taste the same.

ALMOND GREEN BEANS
Fresh or frozen Green Beans (about 4 cups worth or whatever amount you need)
1 - 2 tbl of butter or margarine
1/4 cup of slivered almonds.
French's French Fried Onions

In a large skillet place frozen or fresh green beans. If they are fresh then be sure to wash first and snip the ends off. Cover with water and cook on med heat until cooked the way you want them.

Drain the green beans and remove from skillet. With the burner still set to med, add the butter and almonds. Saute until a light golden brown.

Add the green beans back in and stir until well coated with the butter and almonds. Cook until heated through.

Serve with some of the french fried onions sprinkled on top.
