Made this for Easter and it was very good. Made a day ahead and reheated in microwave. Used toasted almonds instead of hazel nuts and added some lemon juice to the cooking water. Reheats nicely if you don't overcook the beans.

Very easy to make...I liked the fact that I could assemble and cook one day, reheat and serve the next. I was a little disappointed in the taste...a little bland, despite following the recipe and using all fresh ingredients. I will stick with my usual green bean fave. Thanks for sharing.

Like some other reviewers, I used toasted slivered almonds. The lemon gave the beans a lovely freshness without being overpowering & the almonds added a lovely crunch.

Seasoning vegetables with olive oil and lemon is good, but fairly common. Even toasted almonds is really nothing new, even though that's tasty as well. Adding toasting hazelnuts, however, is what gives this a flavor twist, which we really enjoyed.

Very good. I used butter rather than olive oil just for personal preference. I think it's important to chop the hazelnut finely to better complement the green bean and lemon flavor, otherwise it's a bit overpowering. Thank you Christina!

My family isn't crazy over the green bean casserole w/ cream soup & fried onions. I decided to make this one for Thanksgiving, and was extremely pleased. It has a hint of lemon and it is perfect!

I made this dish for an office Thanksgiving lunch, and it was gone in seconds. I got so many compliments, and it was the first dish finished. I used slivered almonds instead of hazelnuts (only because that was what the grocery store had). I also used a little less olive oil. I increased the serving size by 3 times, so my only problem was breaking off the ends of 5 pounds of green beans! I'll definitely make this again.

Not bad. I steamed the green beans and they were nice and tender. Might have wanted a bit more lemon taste.

This was just okay. It didn't get rave reviews. I just wasn't a big fan of the lemon. I had them again tonight and I thought they were a little better leftover, but overall, not my favorite.

A very nice side dish. One change I made was to omit the olive oil and substitute a slightly sweet balsamic drizzle sauce (Brand name: “Racconto Signature Collection”) when I tossed the beans, hazelnuts and zest.
