I'm with you there. I'd rather have steamed fresh green beans with some craisins steamed in it. Maybe a handful of nuts, too.
I think I was taking time off then, my choice. I was thinking we needed to bring these threads back up, or start new ones.I joined here back in April, and It's weird to see ya'll skipped 2020! Would have thought the opposite!
What about sweet potato pie? You can get them at Wally world.This may open a can of worms, no pun intended, but my least favorite Thanksgiving food is sweet potatoes. I know. A lot of people love them, and every variation of them, but they are not my cup of tea. I could eat one if I had to, and it would stay down, but they are definitely my least favorite Thanksgiving food.
Green beans cooked in butter are not bad. Never had them with slivered almonds though. The ones I had, had something crunchy on them that looked kind of like little bits of granola.Love deviled eggs.
As far as green beans, my son in law tried something that was very tasty. He steamed green beans. Threw them in a pan with slivered almonds, threw a tablespoon of butter, then added a tablespoon of soy sauce. Stirred until thick and almonds were cooked. Tasted like edamame (sp) but fantastic.

I like the deviled eggs I make!Keep the sweet potatoes but the rest of that list I love... Hate all the sorts of salads that always seem to show up like broccoli this, beans that... and all in some vinegary cream sauce... and red beets and eggs... what did those eggs do to anyone to deserve that??
What about deviled eggs?? how say you? yaa or naa?
Nothing like home grown green beans!! I think the casserole is for people who don't eat vegetables! Ya know, cover up the taste.I have to say i have been growing green beans for 40 years, but I never liked Green bean casserole.
My sister make it every year.
I heard that recipe from Jack on The Survival Podacst. Now here it is again, thik I'm gonna have to try it. Do you think you need to steam them first or just toss them in the skillet raw?Love deviled eggs.

You would need to blanch them or at least soften them up. I think they would burn before cooking enough.I heard that recipe from Jack on The Survival Podacst. Now here it is again, thik I'm gonna have to try it. Do you think you need to steam them first or just toss them in the skillet raw?

Oh yes! I've had them like this, and bacon is great with green beans! Yes garlic, but I also like some onions with them as well.Well, not green bean casserole but green beans, bacon, and garlic... Good stuff.View attachment 76052
