GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED ALMONDS

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F (If you're cooking other things you can use a slightly lower temperature, just increase the time a little.).
• Trim ends from green beans. If using thin, long beans, cut in half crosswise into pieces about 2 inches long. Peel and cut shallots and garlic, then place with beans in plastic bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper, and use a wooden spoon to toss until beans, shallots, and garlic are well coated with oil.
• Spray roasting pan with nonstick spray or mist with olive oil, then arrange the vegetables in a single layer. (I like to cover the pan with foil, then spray the foil for even easier clean-up.) Roast 12-15 minutes for thin beans, or slightly longer for regular beans, until beans are slightly shriveled, and shallots and garlic are lightly browned.
• While beans cook, toss together chopped parsley, chopped almonds and lemon zest. When beans are done, toss hot beans with parsley/lemon/almond mixture and serve immediately.
