CREAMY LEMONY GREEN BEANS
I had no idea what lemon curd was for a while, then I found bottles of it on the clearance pile at Stop & Shop. It is an English delicacy that is used in both savory and sweet dishes, and enhances the flavors of meats and veggies as well as making for a sweet toast and pastry spread. Hence, I used my favorite vegetable to experiment with lemon curd. Whole and cut green beans work, I like them tender but not mushy.

Steps:
- Steam the green beans to their desired consistency (chewy or tender.).
- Drain them and rinse with cold water to shock them into a vibrant hue.
- Pat the greenbeans dry then put them in a mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, make the sauce by blending the lemon curd, lemon juice olive oil, mustard, and garlic. Microwave for about 30-40 seconds, just enough to heat it but make sure your microwave doesn't totally kill it.
- Pour the sauce over the greenbeans, and toss well to coat.
- Top with walnuts for crunch and pizazz.

Steps:
- Snap off the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife.
- Heat a pan over a medium heat and add the butter. (It helps to use a pan with a light-colored bottom so you can keep track of the color.) Swirl the pan occasionally to be sure the butter is cooking evenly. As the butter melts, it will begin to foam. The color will progress from lemony-yellow to golden-tan to, finally, a toasty-brown.
- Once you smell that nutty aroma, add the green beans and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Add some lemon juice and salt and pepper, then transfer to a platter in batches with tongs.

LEMONY GREEN BEANS
Every summer, Pop raises green beans and I love them. I'm always on the lookout for other ways to fix them in place of cooking them with bacon until soft, even though that is my favorite. Gotta have something different every once in a while. Lemon goes so well with green beans and this recipe sounded like a wonderful way to use fresh green beans. Source: First Magazine
