My family likes this recipe a lot, and it's part of our traditional Thanksgiving meal. If you make this ahead of time, wait and add the cheese right before serving, after reheating the beans. You can also serve the beans without the cheese and let guests add cheese when serving.

DIRECTIONS

Steam or cook green beans for about 5 minutes, until tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add walnuts and saute for a minute or so, to soften the nuts and flavor the butter.
Add the cooked green beans and stir to coat beans with the flavored butter.
Remove from heat. Stir in the blue cheese and serve immediately.
