Tarragon Almond Green Beans

“A hint of balsamic vinegar gives a fresh taste to this simple side dish” shared by Glenda Malan of Lake Forest, California. “Sliced almonds dress up green beans tastefully when company’s coming.”

1-1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1 garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons Crisco Light Olive Oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
4 teaspoons sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon or 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Cook,
uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain. Meanwhile, in a
nonstick skillet, saute onions and garlic in oil until onions are tender. Add the
vinegar, sugar, tarragon and salt. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced
by half. Drain beans; add to onion mixture. Cook and stir until heated through.
Sprinkle with almonds.

Yield: 6 servings.
