I love this. We sometimes use orange or lime to add a varity. Have yet to try grapefruit. Add some sesame seeds for an added burst of flavors.

My husband really liked these, and he rarely likes vegetables I make. He loved that they were still crunchy and had a good flavor.

Too lemony for me...

no thanks

It was okay. No one else would eat it, though.

Quick and easy to prepare. I used haricourt verts (thin French green beans). Adjusted the seasonings a bit for personal preference. Will make again.

This was delicious and easy! Even my children liked it! I cooked them a bit longer than recommended and got almost a grilled taste, very nice.

Not good..recipe didnt work. too oily, not crunchy enough.

Fast, easy and delicious. Makes a great side dish for fish.

This was a very easy recipe. I added about 2 tablespoons white wine and 1/2 tsp chopped garlic. I served it with Salmon w/lemon, basil cream sauce from this site and white rice. At first I thought that it would be too much lemon, but it was good!

These are pretty good. I love lemon, but I still left out the zest. I used about six cups of green beans and they were still a little greasy for me. I make what we call green fries which is very similar to this. I use uncut long green beans, placed in a baking dish single layer then sprayed with olive oil cooking spray and sprinkled with course ground salt and fresh cracked black pepper. Then I bake them at 400 for about 20 min. As I remove them from the oven I squeeze fresh lemon over the green beans and toss. This is still a good recipe for a change up every now and then. Green beans are my favorite vege (I could eat them every day), so its great to have a bunch of recipes for them.

These are my favorite veggie side dish!!

A great side dish along with the bourbon chicken recipe. Family loved this green bean recipe!

You don't even taste the green beans anymore. You taste lemon and grease. Really bad.

This had way too much lemon even while omitting the lemon zest. I'm giving this a 4 though because I'll be keeping this recipe but decreasing the lemon just a bit. Also I thought there was a bit too much oil used, I had to drain the beans afterwards. But overall a good twist to an ordinary vegetable. Thanks!

I must agree with those who found the lemon a little overpowering, but can be tolerated if using a smaller amount. I first had a recipe similar to this when visiting Spain. The quality of the olive oil and lemon is what makes this a delightful side dish. Some lemons are more bitter than others and nothing can replace good olive oil which can be expensive.

loved the lemon flavor-just cut the zest and keep the juice if you're not a lemon-head.

Way too much lemon. I would not make this again.

I didn't use any lemon or lemon zest, just the olive oil and garlic salt . It was great!

Great recipe! The lemon is on the verge of being overpowering but
