1
tablespoon
lemon juice
1
teaspoon

Instructions
Fill a large and deep sauté pan two-thirds full with water and bring to a boil.
Salt the water liberally and add in the beans. Cook for 4 minutes and drain.
Return the beans to the pan and add in the olive oil, lemon juice and honey. Over medium-high heat cook the beans for 3 minutes.
Plate and garnish with the almonds and parmesan. Season with more salt and pepper if desired.
Notes
I have made these with and without honey, and both are fantastic. If you prefer, this ingredient can be eliminated.
