i scaled this way back for 2 of us as one of the sides with recipe #269223 and used 125grams for 2 of us and we thoroughly enjoyed, I as the cook especially the simplicity of the recipe. Unfortunately I had to use dried parsley as my fresh from the garden was killed of while we were on holidays. Thank you Sydney Mike, made for Everyday A Holiday.

A light, flavorful side dish. I much prefer these green beans over those heavy, soupy casseroles! We really enjoyed. Thanks for posting!

Green beans are one of my favorite veggies. This is a quick and delicious way to serve them. I used dried parsley instead of fresh. The rest of the recipe was prepared as written. Made for Gimme 5 Special Holiday Event 2009.

Yummy and quick side dish. Whole family ate this and wanted more. I kept to the recipe, didn't change a thing, I thought the lemon juice and parsley gave it a really nice flavour. I served it with Recipe #387869, Recipe #184153 and BBQ steak. Thank you for posting Sydney Mike
