Green Bean Almond Rice Reviews

World's greatest Mother in law and I thought this was a great way to combine the green vegetable with the starch. Picky Wife, however, did not like the frozen French cut green beans. She said, 'next time, try canned'. Perhaps I will. Love the grn bn & rice combo.

Was delicious, tried it a second time with cous cous and worked just as well.
|
|
This was great! I used fresh green beans and dried basil...
|
|
While preparing this it seemed a bit dry, but that wasn't the case at all when served. We had baked Parmesan tilapia with this. Excellent!
|
|
I used my favorite whole grain rice blend & added pecans (because I realized too late that I was almost out of almonds), and it was delicious!
|

goes great with salmon! Used a Salmon and Avocado Soy and Sesame Soy Dressing recipe that I found on Big Oven!
|
|
Leave out the tarragon.....

Healthy and delicious. This is wonderful served with meatloaf.

I lost my connection while printing, so I went by memory and used Olive Oil...I also added celery and garlic and omitted the tarragon. It still turned out good...I used frozen green beans and red pepper from my garden...mmmmm good!

An excellent side dish, appeasing in taste and presentation. We used almond slices instead of slivers so they cooked a little too fast. Next time I would oven toast them and add them with the rice.

This didn't take long. I had cooked brown rice to use up. I served it with Chicken Picatta for a wholesome and delicious dinner.
