These were really good, and a nice change of pace for the same old green beans. The flavor was pretty subtle; I think next time I will either increase the salt/sugar combo or add red pepper as another reviewer suggested. I used frozen bell pepper, which may have watered down the flavor a bit, too. Thanks for posting; we really enjoyed this! Made for the Mischief Makers, ZWT 6.
