This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if the recipe used more spices.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if the recipe used less chili peppers.

Not bad, but not my favorite. I thought the green beans were a bit too crunchy and the coconut milk sauce was a bit bland.

These green beans were good, but not great. I found the coconut milk to be a bit too overpowering. I think I would have preferred it if the recipe used less coconut milk and more vegetables.
