    Loved this recipe, a little sweet and as much (or little) crunch as you prefer. We used fresh green beans instead of snap and worked out just fine. - 10/10/12

    I made it last night as a side dish for dinner and my husband and I loved it! I used pre-sliced carrots to cut down on the cooking time. I loved how easy and quick this recipe is - definitely a keeper. Thanks! - 2/22/10
