I was looking for a vegetable dish to go with the baked chicken dish that I made for dinner the other day. This recipe caught my attention because it consists some of my favorites: French green beans, Dijon mustard and almonds. It was simple and super easy to make. It can be served warm or cold and either way, it is delicious, flavorful and crispy. It is very good the next day too!
