July 12, 201313 yr Active Members Great recipe with a super sauce - the amount of calories really depends on how much olive oil one adds to the sauce - I like a drizzle of toasted sesame oil for a bit of smoky flavor and less olive oil. 12 oz green beans 2 t Dijon mustard 2 T lemon juice 1 T extra virgin olive oil 1 T shallot 1/4 t ground black pepper 1 T parsley Steam the green beans, broccoli, cauliflower or whatever veggie for maybe 6-8 minutes or longer, just until they start to get a bit tender. While the beans steam, combine the rest of the ingredients in a small bowl. Drain the veggis and toss with the sauce and serve immediately. Can also be eaten cold.

July 12, 201313 yr Author Active Members Use diced onion that you've sauteed in a tiny bit of olive oil until transparent. Don't let it brown. Pull it out of the pan and then used the same pan to steam whatever veggies you like. Long beans, pea pods, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage. Doesn't matter so much as this is a nice lower-fat, lower-calorie sauce for whatever. And neither tomato nor cream-based.
