Holiday Green Beans
|
Ingredients:
- 2 3/4 lbs green beans, trimmed; strings removed
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 3 Tbsp heavy cream
- 3 Tbsp finely chopped mushrooms
- 1/4 cup walnuts, coarsly chopped
- 2 1/2 Tbsp scallions, freshly chopped
- Salt to taste
- Garlic to taste
- 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
In a 4 1/2 quart saucepan, bring 2 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add green
beans. When the water returns to a boil, cook green beans for 5 minutes. Drain
water from beans. Set aside.
In the same saucepan, add butter, cream, walnuts,
scallions, garlic and salt. Heat to a small boil, stirring constantly. Heat until
slightly thick. Return beans to pan and heat thoroughly. Top with bacon just
before serving.
To add a bit of Christmas color, if desired, sprinkle a few chopped pimientos on
top around the bacon. It adds only an extra trace of carbs.
Makes 8 Servings. 3 net grams of carbohydrate per serving.
