In a saucepan over medium-low heat, melt smart balance. Add onion and cook for about 30 seconds. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and splenda; blend well and continue cooking and stirring until bubbly. Stir in yogurt and cook over low heat for about 1 minute.
If desired, in a separate saucepan, saute beans to cook through.
