  1. These beans and nuts were terrific. I was skeptical that the nuts would turn golden but they did. The butter and frozen green beans mixed with the slivers made a super side dish. Easy to make and looks like you put in more effort than you actually do. The presentation is nice. Even the kids try the nutty flavor. I am changing my bias against microwaving with this and other recent dishes. Made for My 3 Chefs Event Oct. 2013. Enjoy! ChefDLH
