I didnt have fresh green beans on hand so I used canned and I enjoyed them a lot. DH didnt do well with them but when he took some over to my mom she loved them too. Put the green beans in a skillet and added the onion and dressing then let the beans warm thru. Will be making these again when I go to the Farmer's Market and get some fresh green beans. This recipe is a definite keeper! Made and reviewed for Kittencal's Going Green For March Recipe Tag.

This is a nice and tasty twist on green beans. I really enjoyed the flavors that the mustard and vinegar added. The oil was reduced to 2 tablespoons and worked well. The onion was tossed into the beans along with the dressing, the lid was placed on tight and they were allowed to stand a few minutes before serving. The beans were crisp tender and the onion was slightly wilted. Made for *Partying the Diabetic Way*

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
