Lemony Green Beans image

Every summer, Pop raises green beans and I love them. I'm always on the lookout for other ways to fix them in place of cooking them with bacon until soft, even though that is my favorite. Gotta have something different every once in a while. Lemon goes so well with green beans and this recipe sounded like a wonderful way to use fresh green beans. Source: First Magazine

These green beans were a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise they were good.

These green beans were good, but not great. The lemon flavor was a bit too strong for my taste and the green beans were a bit overcooked.

I thought these green beans were just okay. They were a bit bland and the lemon flavor was not very strong. I might try adding some other seasonings next time.

These green beans were a bit too lemony for my taste. I might try using less lemon juice next time.
