Green beans also are called string beans or snap beans. Whatever the name, these beans are low in calories, filling and taste best when the beans are thinner than a pencil.

- 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
For dressing
Directions
In a steamer basket over boiling water, cook beans and red peppers until crisp-tender.
