Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Toast the Almonds: In a skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Add the slivered almonds and cook gently, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown. This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.

    🌟 Keep an eye on the almonds, as they can go from golden to burnt quickly!

  2. Add Seasoning: Once the almonds are toasted, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the salt and lemon juice to the almond-butter mixture.

  3. Prepare the Green Beans: Meanwhile, cook the green beans in boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until they're bright green and tender-crisp. Drain them well.

  4. Combine and Serve: Pour the almond-butter mixture over the hot cooked green beans, tossing gently to coat evenly. Serve immediately.

    🍋 For an extra zing, feel free to add more lemon juice according to your taste!
