Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs French green beans (haricot verts) trimmed
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 1/4 cup raw slivered almonds
- 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon stevia seasoning or seasoning of your choice
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Over high heat, bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Once boiling add the green beans and blanch for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove when they are crisp-tender. You want to insure they are slightly undercooked as they will cook some more when sauteed.
- Set a large wok or deep skillet over medium low heat. Roast the almonds, stirring, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Melt the butter slightly in the wok.
- Add the green beans, lemon juice, seasoning and sauté, stirring gently until well mixed.
- Add the sliced almonds and stir until combined.
- Once well heated remove green beans from pan and place in a serving bowl or dish.
- Serve immediately.
