Notes
Tips for making this recipe:
- I used French green beans for this recipe. Regular cut green beans will work too, but remember to trim the ends before cooking them.
- Feel free to mix up the vegetables in this dish. Asparagus and Brussels sprouts would be great, but do know that they may take a little longer to cook, so adjust the cooking time as needed.
