Is An Air Fried Green Bean Healthy?
For starters, any vegetables are better than no vegetables. If a plate of air fried green beans are able to displace a less nutritious meal, it’s great! Sure it’s ‘fried’ or you will use a dip with it but that doesn’t mean you aren’t still getting the great nutrition green beans provide like vitamin C and fiber.
How To Eat Them
You can have them alone, pair them with your favorite dip, or try my Greek Yogurt Herb Dip. It tastes like a healthy version of french onion dip!
