Tahini Garlic Green Beans

Author: Lisa Le

Ingredients

  • 1 lb green beans trimmed and washed
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp tahini
  • 1 tsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 pinch dried chili flakes
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

  • First blanch the green beans by boiling them until they turn a bright green (about 1 minute) then shock with a bowl of ice water. Drain and set aside.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the dijon mustard, tahini, nutritional yeast, water, garlic powder, chili flakes, and sea salt until smooth and combined. Set aside.
  • Preheat a large pan over medium with the olive oil and coconut oil. Add the green beans and drizzle the sauce on top. Quickly stir and mix beans until they're coated, cook until the beans are hot and remove from pan immediately (you should be sautéing them for 3-5 minutes or else they'll get overcooked and soggy).
  • Serve immediately, and enjoy!
