I very much enjoyed this recipe,using fresh green beans, but it just didn't do it for DH who had a texture problem with it. Sometimes I swear he is worse than a child lol. The resulting leftovers which I ate the next day were soggy so this is definitely a recipe best eaten immediately after preparation. Thank you Cookgirl for sharing the recipe.
