I just had to make this as soon as I saw it, and man, talk about great! I used honey and substituted sesame for olive oil, and it gave it a great nutty flavor. I also tossed in some toasted sesame seeds to finish it all off. Tasty! -
MMMMMMMMMM...this is delicious and quick and easy to make!! I didn't have any trouble and it turned out like it was supposed too. My husband, who usually doesn't eat green beans liked this! Now, I will try it with the kids! Thanks for the great recipe! -
Well, this didn't quite work out for me; I cooked and stirred for much longer than 7 minutes and the maple syrup never dried up. But, the result was still quite tasty! (In fact I ate the whole recipe.) Next time I'll try using less syrup and hope that it works.

I am, as the character in a movie once said, terribly old for a cabbage, but for a mountain I'm not yet begun in years!
I am interested and fairly good at a number of crafts (in fact the running joke in my family is that between my sisters and me the only think that we CAN'T make is MONEY! - something that I'm in the process of changing).
My skill at cooking depends very much upon who you ask. I've been a lacto-ovo vegetarian for about 6 years now, and still am not quite used to tofu. My sweetie has been a vegetarian for most of his 50+ years and HE loves tofu.
I live in So. Calif with my life-mate, Al and quite a few pets. We both are storytellers and musicians (although I'm just a beginner and he's an expert), I also am interested in middle-eastern (belly) dance.
