Just made these wonderful little beans the other night, and wouldn't you know, my husband ate vegetables! A miracle! I love them, and I was hoping it would be ok with you if I linked to your pages on occasion...I just want to tell the world (being my small circle of friends and family who actually read my blog), about the wonderful things I've been cooking up thanks to your ideas.

I love the haricot vert... this may be MY new favorite side dish! I've made it twice in the last week. So delicious. So simple. So versatile.

Sadly, I was the only one in my family. My 2.5 year old said that the beans were "quite hard", meaning she had some difficulty chewing them. Even though all her teeth are out I guess she's still used to "softer" food. My hubby also said the same thing (but he doesn't have problems with teeth or with "harder" food) :-) So it wasn't a great success for them, but it was for me. Thanks for sharing!

I think it's the wonderful photography that makes the veg look so much more appealing than I could imagine veg to be, so I'm moved to try the recipe. Case in point: I have not traditionally been a green bean lover, but you have won me over to the haricot vert side of the street with this and the green bean and tomato salad. Thanks Deb!

I can't wait to try this. So happy I've found your blog, fantabulous photos, great humour and scrumptious recipes. I love ribs and am so looking forward to trying your dry rub tech too This reminds me of my grandmas dish of green beans boiled with bacon and onion, but better! I can’t wait to try this.

Thanks for the great recipe. It sounded so simple I had low expectations but these are so tasty. I can't believe you shared them with Alex. I ate them all by myself. Yummy!
