These green beans were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less olive oil next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my green beans turned out mushy. I'm going to try this recipe again and see if I can get it right.

I'm not a big fan of basil, so I used parsley instead. The beans were still very good.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I added some chopped bacon and it was delicious!

The beans were a bit overcooked, but the flavor was still good. I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time next time.

These green beans were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more garlic and pepper next time.

I'm not usually a fan of green beans, but these were delicious! The basil pesto was the perfect complement to the beans, and the almonds added a nice crunch.
