2 pounds green beans, washed and trimmed
½ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 rounded teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon black pepper

Fill a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Immerse the beans in the boiling water for 5 – 10 minutes, depending on how you like them. In the meantime combine the rest of the ingredients to make a smooth sauce. Drain beans and mix with sauce.
