Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Prep the Beans: Remove the strings from the green beans, keeping them whole for the best texture.

  2. Cook: In a large pot, bring a small amount of water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until they are tender yet crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Drain the beans once cooked.

    🔥 Tip: To maintain vibrant green color, consider plunging the beans into ice water after cooking to stop the cooking process quickly!

  3. Add Flavor: In the same pot, add the margarine, mint jelly, cider vinegar, and rosemary. Stir until melted and combined.

  4. Combine: Toss the green beans back into the pot, allowing them to soak up all the wonderful flavors.

  5. Serve: Arrange the green beans on serving plates and garnish with lemon twists for an extra zesty touch.

    🍋 Garnish Tip: Fresh lemon juice can also be drizzled on top for an extra burst of brightness!
