Are green beans good for you?
Yep! Green beans are a great option for a side dish because they are low calories, packed full of Vitamin C and K, fiber and folate.
Should I use frozen, canned or fresh green beans?
Green beans is widely available fresh, frozen or canned. So, which do you choose? Well, of course fresh is the best option and the one I recommend and use in this green beans recipe. There’s nothing better! But, if you can’t get your hands on those, frozen is your next best bet. Usually limp, overcooked and colorless, canned green beans are just sad to look at, let alone eat, so that should be your last option.
How Should I Select Fresh Green Beans?
Fresh green beans should be firm and should snap when bent in half. You’ll want to trim off the tough ends before cooking them.
