Every new year is time for a new start and part of that for our family is making sure we are incorporating fresh food as often as possible. Thankfully we have a local farmers market mere minutes from my house and combining our purchases there with some of our other favorite ingredients means it’s easier to keep our resolution.
With under 10 minutes needed, this Sautéed Cranberry Orange Spiced Green Beans recipe is sure to keep you coming back for guilt-free seconds. Fresh crispy green beans along with the perfect blend of spice and sweet, you will absolutely be adding this one to your monthly side dish rotation.
GET A CAST IRON PAN
Before you get started, I highly recommend using a cast iron pan. If you do not have one, its a must when it comes to cooking. I cook almost 100% in cast iron, which makes the food taste better and can easily be put in the oven to finish meats. This is the one I use:
Lodge L8SK3 Cast Iron Skillet, Pre-Seasoned, 10.25-inch
Sautéed Cranberry Orange Spiced Green Beans
- 3 Tbsp. Country Crock® Spread
- 1 lb. green beans, trimmed
- 1 large shallot or small onion
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
Directions:
MELT Country Crock® Spread in large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook green beans and shallot, stirring frequently, until crisp and tender, about 8 minutes.
STIR in orange juice, cranberries and cinnamon and cook 1 minute.
Season, if desired, with salt and pepper to taste.
SPOON vegetables into serving bowl and, if desired, sprinkle with toasted almonds.
