    These easy Garlic Almond Green Beans take little time to prepare. In fact, you need 15 minutes from start to finish. They are cooked until tender and are flavorful, healthy and so good. Perfect side dish for any occasion.

    Garlic Almond Green Beans

    When I say the recipe takes only 15 minutes to prepare, I'm not exaggerating. 15 minutes is all you need to make tender, healthy and the best green beans ever.

    Here's a thing. When it comes to green beans recipes that you can find around Internet, there is one problem....

    ...they are either severely undercooked and taste like grass, or they are so overcooked, that they loose all their healthy properties and vibrant green color.

    Which camp are you in?:)

    I have to tell you, for many years I was overcooking my green beans big time. It would usually take 30 or 40 minutes to roast them and I would always end up having too many overcooked brownish-like beans.

    Totally unattractive.

    They were edible though, but not something you would put on a table when you have guests over.

    Recently, I discovered a way to make green beans fast, healthy and delicious.

    In addition, because cooking time is only 15 minutes, they don't loose their pretty green color.

    Ingredients

    • 1 lb green beans I recommend Haricot Verts
    • 4 tablespoon sliced almonds optional
    • ½ c water
    • 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced
    • 1 tablespoon vegan or regular butter
    • ¼ teaspoon salt

    Instructions

    • This step is optional. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Place almonds on a baking tray and roast them for about 5 minutes until slightly brown on the sides.
    • Meanwhile, place beans in a large pan, add water and salt and cook on a medium-low heat 10-15 minutes or until desired tenderness.* (See the notes)
    • When all water evaporates, in the same pan melt vegan butter, add sliced garlic and sauté for 1 more minute. Remove from the heat.
    • Sprinkle with toasted almonds and serve.

    Notes

    Water
    If beans are already nice and tender but there's still some water in a pan, simply drain it and proceed to the next step.
