Delicious and easy! Went great with the Pork Tenderloin and Cranberry Tabbouleh. Tonight I traded out the sugar snap peas and snow peas for green beans (they looked better at the store!). I tossed them with the sesame seed oil a little salt and pepper and then steamed them in the microwave. At the end I tossed with the toasted sesame seeds. Wonderful!
