SESAME GREEN BEANS

Sesame Green Beans image

Serving a sesame peanut butter sauce with the fresh green beans is an excellent pairing. The warm sauce is bursting with sesame and peanut butter flavor. The sauce is a bit spicy but the fresh green beans cool the bite down a bit. We really loved the sauce - it elevates basic green beans. You could use this sauce for fresh spring...
