Is a green bean really a veggie
I don’t know! They are delicious, especially if you chill them, while still
crispy, after cooking and make a salad of green and wax beans by adding a
little of your homemade compliant dressing. However, our emphasis for healthy
eating should be to eat lots of dark leafy greens. So, the green bean does not
qualify, and would not be appropriate as a diet staple. Certainly, it’s ok to
have some once in awhile, but you wouldn’t want to eat it to the exclusion of
the more beneficial vegetables.
