Louisiana Green Beans (Creole Recipe for ZWT-9) image

Found at a cooking-by-country (or region) website, just reading this recipe took me back decades to a time growing up when we would pick beans from the garden & cook them until soft w/a combo of onion w/ham or bacon. I never cared when the main-course was as long as I could have a HUGE plate of those green beans. If it was my choice to make, I would definitely dbl this recipe! Enjoy!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my beans turned out mushy. I think I might have cooked them for too long.

This recipe is a great starting point, but it's definitely customizable to your own taste. I added some extra garlic and cayenne pepper to give it a little more kick.

I would make this recipe again, but I would make a few changes. I would use less creole seasoning and I would cook the beans for a few minutes longer.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding a little more water or broth to thin it out.

I found that the beans were a little undercooked for my liking. I would recommend cooking them for a few minutes longer.

These beans were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, they were very flavorful and well-cooked.

I'm not a huge fan of green beans, but these were actually really good! The creole seasoning really made all the difference.

These green beans are a great way to add some extra vegetables to your diet. They're also a good source of fiber, which is important for gut health.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The beans were cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I especially liked the addition of the bell pepper and onion, which added a nice crunch and sweetness to the dish.
