GREEN BEANS WITH CREAMY PISTACHIO SAUCE
I was asked to bring vegetables for a party and wasn't feeling inspired until I remembered Mom served green beans with butter and evaporated milk. I love pistachios, so I added those instead of almonds. Everybody wanted the recipe, and I was really pleased-very little work and lots of happy family and friends! -Loretta Ouellette, Pompano Beach, Florida
