Great German Green beans!August 28, 2008By memphisleisa
"I tried this recipe for a thanksgiving-style dinner I made several months ago and my family did everything but lick the serving bowl! Now, we have it a couple of times a month. I have served it with bbq chicken, ribs & roasted chicken. This dish goes with just about every dinner menu! No one in my family likes green beans but we LOVE this recipe! Very easy and delicious!"
