Chive Green Beans

I'm jonesin' for the spring produce that I know is hitting the grocery store shelves in but a mere month... green beans are still good this time of year, though, and this is a simple and yummy way to prepare them.

Steam 1 pound of green beans for 5 minutes. Drain and combine in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, 2 teaspoons vegan butter (such as Earth Balance), 1/2 tsp. stoneground mustard, 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/8 tsp. black pepper. Toss to combine.

3/4 cup is 60 calories.

Gosh, that really was quick!

Cost:
green beans $2.34
chives $2.99
parsley $1.99
