Green bean Armadine

4 cups of frozen green beans
1/4 cup bacon grease
1/4 cup slivered almonds
2 tablespoons crushed garlic
Sea salt to taste

(Optional cooked bacon and crushed into bits.)

Melt bacon grease in a large sauce pan. Add green beans and garlic and sauté on med/high heat. When the green beans are halfway cooked add the slivered almonds. Add salt to taste. Cook beans until they are slightly browned.

I think this takes about 10 min. Depending on the amount of the green beans! You can place in the oven or a crock pot to keep warm.
