Apricot almond awesome? Apricot almond amazing? There are so many alliterative ways we can go with a meal that marries that subtle sweetness of apricot with the natural nutty almond flavor. Pour that sauce over porcine protein and you have a meal so sublime, so satisfying, it'll be hard to stop supping. Tip: Line 'em up! The best way to remove the ends of green beans is to line them up evenly, then remove them with one cut.
