Green Beans with a Creamy Herb Sauce

This twist on a classic has all the flavor for a fraction of the calories, thanks to the Greek yogurt-herb sauce.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
• 2 tbs. chopped fresh herbs, like parsley, dill and tarragon
• 2 Tbs. lemon zest
• 1 tsp. garlic salt
• 1 lb. green beans, trimmed
• French-fried crispy onions
• 1 cup of Walnuts

1. In small bowl, stir together nonfat Greek yogurt, chopped herbs, lemon zest and garlic salt. Season to taste with pepper; set aside
2. Bring pot of salted water to a boil.  Add green beans.  When beans rise to surface, 4 to 5 min., they are cooked al dente and will be ready to drain at this point.  Allow beans to drain completely; transfer to serving platter.  Drizzle creamy herb sauce over beans.  Sprinkle with french-fried onions as desired for garnish.
