Do you eat frozen beans? Try fresh beans, much tastier and better for your health. Green beans are a very healthy vegetable, and this dish is a welcome change from regular steamed green beans which you may well eat. You can also make this dish with fresh spinach instead of green beans. Watercress is another option and I have found watercress to be an excellent alternative. This dish is gluten-free and very tasty, it is an excellent side dish which goes well with a beef or chicken dish.
