Beautiful Green Beans:)



Recommended Posts

I do love me some green beans! Hit these guys with a little sesame oil, some minced garlic, some balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Crack Beans. Love them. If you have some lean ham or turkey bacon, dice it up and throw it in. Have leftovers? Throw them in a potato and green bean Soup. Can't go wrong with these...and you can get the nice pretty tender little whole beans frozen at Aldi on the cheap. Enjoy!

I use the Aldi brand of extra tiny beans....they're young beans..skinny, more tender, easier to chew well. And incredibly delicious.

Those look delicious! I love green Beans. My favorite frozen green beans are Steamfresh (I don't steam them in the bag, though). I also got some good ones from Trader Joe's for a great price.

I eat green Beans almost every day (with asparagus, sugarsnap peas & broccolini). I’m spoilt, I have access to fresh green bean all year round - my family grows a lot of beans. 😉

I usually just microwave them with a little Water & butter. So yummy. I love them with garlic & a splash of sesame oil too. Delicious raw too. Crunchy goodness.

I like to roast green Beans or haricots verts with some olive oil, salt, pepper, and sometimes grated parm in a 425F oven for 10-12 minutes, turning once. I make about 12-16 oz of beans at once and it's like three servings, which reheat well in the microwave (I'm presurgery).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
