Ingredients
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 teaspoon minced shallot
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/3 cup plain nonfat greek yogurt
Directions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat and prepare an ice bath. Add the green beans and cook just until they turn bright green and are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool immediately in the ice bath. Once cooled, remove the beans from water and pat dry.
- In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, shallot, and salt. Add the green beans and toss until evenly coated.
