For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the walnuts lightly in a dry skillet before adding them to the green beans. A pinch of red pepper flakes adds a subtle hint of heat that complements the sweetness beautifully. This dish is best served warm, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
