Recipe: Teriyaki Green Beans

 I first had these beans when we had some friends of ours over and she made them. I knew I wanted to make them again. A few weeks ago I was grocery shopping and sent her a text to find out how she made them and what she used, then made sure I had all the ingredients. It would be a few more weeks before I'd make them. Last week I picked up the beans I wanted, got a few more ingredients and decided to make them when I made my yummy salmon.


Have you ever tried to duplicate someone elses recipe, especially when there isn't really a "recipe" to follow. Sometimes, sadly, it doesn't turn out. Well, not so with this one. They were just as amazing as when she made them. YaY!!!

....New Feature: Printable Recipes...I figured it out. So go to Printable Recipe for today's recipe.

Ingredients:

• French Cut Green Beans (I bought a bag in Costco's produce section)
• EVOO & 1 Tbs. butter
• 1 clove garlic, minced (more depending on how much you're making)
• Johnny's seasoning
• pepper
• 2 Tbs. soy sauce
• 2 Tbs. agave nectar (again, more or less depending on how many beans you're making)

• In a large saute pan, add EVOO (a few tablespoons) and butter. Melt. 

• Add beans (I didn't trim these at all, just threw them right in the pan), garlic and season with pepper and Johnny's (no measurements, just eyeball it).

• Stir and cook about 3-5 minutes on medium.

• Add soy sauce and agave nectar (or you can use any teriyaki sauce). Cook and stir until beans are crisp tender.

• Serve with flavored, sliced almonds (they type you buy to put on salads...I used tomato and basil flavor)

 Your family and your guests will not be disappointed. I would even venture to guess that even the most picky veggie eater, might love these.
