Creamy Dijon Sauce

After Crossfit today, I felt like being really lazy with cooking dinner...but I still wanted something flavorful and exciting.  My decision: Grilled pork chops with a creamy dijon sauce, italian herb roasted carrots, and garlic sauteed spinach.  The creamy dijon sauce became the star of this dish and added some great flavor to the pork.  It was an easy sauce to make and could definitely be used on other things as well, such as chicken or even other vegetables.  After adjusting the ingredients a little bit while I was cooking, I reached the perfect blend of creaminess and dijon mustard flavor to make the sauce a hit.



Creamy Dijon Sauce
Yield: ~3-4 servings
Ingredients
2 Tablespoons dijon mustard
1.5 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup lite coconut milk
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Black pepper, to taste

Directions

1) Place all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and mix well.

2) Allow sauce to heat up for 4-5 minutes, but do not bring sauce to a boil.

3) Once warm, the sauce is ready to serve.  If you are not finished with rest of your meal, cover the sauce and turn heat down to low until ready to serve.
