GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

GREEN BEANS WITH MUSHROOM AND SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Put green beans in a microwave-safe bowl with the water. Cover tightly and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Carefully remove the cover, drain in a colander, shaking off any excess water, and set aside.
• While the beans are cooking, heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the shallots and cook, stirring, until softened slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the water they release has evaporated and they begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the green beans and stir to combine and rewarm. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Melt 1/2 of the butter on stove, add slivered almonds and continuously stir to toast.
• They are done when their color has changed slightly.
• Remove the almonds.
• Melt the rest of the butter, and saute mushrooms with garlic pepper and other seasonings as you wish.
• Meanwhile, cook green beans (I use frozen, so I cook them in the microwave while I'm sauteing).
• Once the mushrooms are done, turn them down to low until the green beans are done.
• Mix together the green beans, mushrooms, and slivered almonds, reserving a tablespoon or so to sprinkle on the top before serving.
