Good, but I didn't taste much dill. Will double it next time. Thanks Carla! -
wonderful and easy! i added fresh carrots as well....also added some minced garlic and minced onion for extra flavor...YUMMY!! -
Wonderful side dish! I used chicken broth, as that was what I had on hand. I did have to drain the broth at the end, so felt I was loosing all that wonderful dill. I only used 1 T butter and that was plenty for us, lots of freshly ground pepper and salt. Next time, I will add the dill at the end and see if that made a difference. Excellent recipe...kudos on the find!! -
Delicious - will put this into regular rotation! -

This was a hit. But I have to admit, the green beans I had were looking a little sorry so at the last minute I had to use frozen green peas instead. They were so good with this sauce! Thanks so much, this simple and fresh tasting sauce can be applied to everyday veggies to be sure.
