Creamy Mustard Tossed Green Beans
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons stone-ground or whole-grain mustard
- ¼ cup light sour cream
- Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
This simple recipe actually makes quite an elegant side dish.
- Place a steamer insert in a large pot and add enough water to reach just below the insert. Place the pot over high heat, cover with a lid, and bring the water to a boil. Add the green beans and re-cover the pot, leaving the lid slightly ajar. Steam the beans for 3 to 5 minutes, or until they are crisp-tender. Drain them well.
- Meanwhile, mix the mustard and sour cream in a small bowl until well combined.
- Transfer the beans to a large glass or plastic serving bowl and add the mustard mixture. Toss well to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
