Haricots Verts

This comes from a package of Trader Joe's very thin, crisp string beans. I wouldn't try it with overgrown string beans, or even fresh kentucky wonders or similar beans, but it was great with the ones in its package.

• 12 oz fresh string beans
• 2 Tbsp olive oil or butter
• 1/2 C toasted slivered almonds
• squeeze of lemon juice (1 tsp?)
• salt and pepper to taste

In a saucepan, heat oil or butter, add beans. Stir.

Add other ingredients. Cook until beans are hot.
