Ingredients

l lb        Fresh or frozen green beans

(opt)     Salt or garlic salt to taste

1/3 cup  Sliced or slivered almonds

1 T        Nutritional yeast flakes

1 T.       Sesame seeds

 

Directions

Snap or French cut green beans.  Simmer, covered, in a large skillet with a small amount of water until tender.  Sprinkle lightly with salt if desired. Meanwhile, prepare almonds by placing them on a cookie sheet in the oven at 250°F, and roast until lightly toasted.  Or, heat in a frying pan without oil over med-lo heat, stirring often until lightly browned.  Watch carefully to prevent burning.  When beans have completed cooking, add yeast to water remaining in the skillet and stir until dissolved. Add more water if necessary until it has the appearance of melted butter.  Spoon green beans into a shallow serving dish and garnish with almonds and sesame seeds
