I like to think of Dijon mustard as one of my favorite "secret ingredients," and this recipe will show you just why. Only a teaspoon gives this appetizing entree and astonishing amount of flavor. I won't promise that you family will start dancing the can-can when you serve it, but you kow, they just might!
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 (10 3/4-ounce) can Healthy Request Cream of Mushroom Soup
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups (one 16-ounce can) French-style green beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups cooked rotini pasta, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Kraft reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
In a large skillet sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray, saute onion for 5 minutes or until tender. Add mushroom soup, mustard, parsley flakes, and black pepper. Mix well to combine. Stir in green beans, rotini pasta, and Cheddar cheese. Lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until cheese melts, stirring often.
Serves 4 (1 1/2 cups each) - each serving equals:
Hint: 1 1/2 cups uncooked rotini pasta usually cooks to about 2 cups.
