Romano Beans with Mint

Very nice. I would never have thought to add mint to beans but this was delicious. I used half romano beans and half wax beans and blanched them ahead of time. The cooking time for the romano beans was perfect. I used less butter than called for and it was still great and very creamy. This dish went really well with the caramelized sea scallops.

I halved the recipe, but used less than a quarter of the butter -- the full amount would have been way over the top. I used vegetable stock (homemade), beans from the farm market and mint from the garden -- heaven! Leftovers were great added to salad.
