Not only does it taste delicious but it can be ready in just 20 minutes. It is quick and easy. I love working on this side dish while the rest of my meal is cooking. It makes for a delicious treat and everyone will enjoy it.
I like my mushrooms sliced but you can cook them whole too. I sautéed the mushrooms, celery and almonds while the green beans cooked. Then I tossed everything together and served it nice and fresh.
A green bean variety.
