GREEN BEANS WITH CREAMY PISTACHIO SAUCE
I was asked to bring vegetables for a party and wasn't feeling inspired until I remembered Mom served green beans with butter and evaporated milk. I love pistachios, so I added those instead of almonds. Everybody wanted the recipe, and I was really pleased-very little work and lots of happy family and friends! -Loretta Ouellette, Pompano Beach, Florida

[email protected]This dish was a disaster! The sauce was watery and bland, and the green beans were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]Good, but not great. The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I also found that the green beans were a bit overcooked.
