Recipe: Green Beans Almondine

Green beans almondine are a classic French side dish that features fresh green beans and crunchy, toasted almonds. If you’re looking for a simple yet delicious alternative to green bean casserole this Thanksgiving, this dish is the perfect substitute.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup of Talia’s Almonds, sliced or slivered
• 1lb. green beans, trimmed
• 2 tbsp. olive oil, divided
• 6 cloves of garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp. salt

Instructions

1. Heat 1 tbsp. of olive oil over medium heat in a large pan. Add in the almonds and toast until they turn a golden brown color. Set aside in a separate container.
2. Using the same pan, add in the remaining olive oil and green beans. Cook until the green beans change into a bright green color and have softened, about 6-8 minutes.
3. Add in the garlic and sauté until fragrant, or about 1-2 minutes.
4. Pour in the toasted almonds and salt. Stir to combine.
