Green Beans With Citrus Mustard image

Mustard offers so many ways to zest up low-sodium and low-fat dishes that it's no wonder it is a popular seasoning. In addition to using it with fish, poultry, cooked vegetables and raw salads, it perks up grains and legumes, too. Points 0.

I would give this recipe a 3 out of 5 stars. It was easy to make, but the flavor was just average.

This recipe was a waste of time. The green beans were bland and the sauce was too sweet.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my green beans turned out mushy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
