Mushrooms & Green Beans

This is a great side dish, but also works as the entree!! With a prep time of only a 10-15 minutes, it's great for a quick meal on a week night too.


Ingredients
  1. 1 cup fresh frozen french cut green beans
  2. 1 cup white button and baby portabella mushrooms
  3. 1/4 cup vegetable broth
  4. 1 tsp minced garlic
  5. 1 tsp whole mustard seeds
  6. 1-2 tsp Tony Cachere's Creole Seasoning
  7. salt and pepper to taste. 
Directions: 
In a deep skillet, heat up the vegetable broth and add garlic and mustard seeds. Once the broth comes to a boil add the green beans and allow to cook for a few minutes. Then add mushrooms, halved or quartered depending on the individual size, and add seasonings. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until the broth is almost gone. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. I served this as a side dish with my sandwich for dinner, but I plan on eating whats left, by itself, for lunch tomorrow. 

Nik's Reaction: He shoveled the green beans in about as quickly as he could swallow 'em. We're still working on the fungi ... !!!
