    I soooooooooo love this recipe. I didn't use pine nuts and I blanched the beans for about 4 minutes before draining and drying them. I also seasoned to taste. I will cook this again with the raw green beans in the refrigerator.

    I was looking for another way to make green beans, other than my go to standard - almondine. This hit the mark. I did boil the green beans for 4 minutes, then reheated about 1 minute. I like them fairly crisp. The shallots,pine nuts and lemon were great.

    These beans are amazing!! Super easy. I usually make 1 pound for 4 people b/c everyone wants seconds. I do like them a little softer so I boil for a few minutes longer than suggested. Extra pine nuts are good too!

    Great green beans. A little too sour but that can easily be adjusted for next time, and there will be a next time.

    super quick,easy and tasty. The adults *loved* them. The kids not so much...they liked their "plain" green beans better...but that is the kids. I would serve these at andult dinner party again for sure. I used some "smashed" pine nuts I had left over from making pesto sauce and squashed too many of them. This was a great use for them!

    Made these tonight to go with grilled trout. Absolutely the best thing on the table - the whole family loved them. Made 2 lbs of beans, and they're all gone!

    Nice variation on the dill and butter version. The shallot and lemon flavors come through just enough to be noticeable but not overwhelming. Pay complete attention when sauteeing the shallots and pine nuts in the melted butter--they burn in literal seconds if you're not watching (from personal experience!.

    I'm not a big green bean eater. I've never found a green bean that I've really cared for but this recipe was easy and delicious. I have already made this dish twice in the last week and hope to make it again soon.
