For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and use 2 tablespoons of olive oil instead of bacon drippings. A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a subtle kick. Fresh green beans can be used in place of frozen; just increase the cooking time until tender-crisp. Toasted pecans or walnuts can be substituted for the almonds. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving brightens the flavors.
