I really liked this recipe. I like green beans anyway, but it's nice to see how someone else prepares them. I used the handy dandy measuring cups and spooned the green beans into the measuring cup, then into the bowl, removing any clumps as best I could. Hubby really liked it and made sure we had leftovers for tomorrow.
