A Little heavy on the dijon flavour but otherwise a nice change to your vegetable side dish

My husband loved this. I think the next time I make it I will try it with honey mustard the Dijon was a bit to strong for me.

Very different, but very good. I steamed the beans first and I think it helped a lot. I also used frozen bean instead of fresh and it worked out just fine. I did not have to use all of the mustard and as it was, the mustard taste was a little strong.

it's better if you steam the beans first for 2-3 minutes, then go ahead and put in skillet. you also can half the mustard.

Very tasty. It jazzes up green beans when you have company over.
