  • A green bean dish that I must share!

    I came up with this last night and it was soooo good!
    I don't think green beans are on the list for induction, but they only have 4 carbs per 1/2 cup, and for goodness sakes, peas have more carbs and they are on the list. Either way, I think it's super good.

    In a large skillet or saucepan add:
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    1/2 to 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (more or less depending on taste)
    I also added a little garlic salt, and a splash of worchestershire sauce.
    Heat until cheese is melted.
    Add 2 cans of cut green beans (strained)
    1/4c fried onion bits.
    Stir, and voila!
    Should serve 4. (2 servings of green beans per can)

    The fried onion bits have 3 carbs per 2 tablespoons, but it's less per serving.

    Green beans are allowed on induction. I believe the book calls them string beans.

      That is correct firegem. Snow peas are also allowed during Induction. Regular green peas are on the starchy veggie list & aren't allowed until the appropriate rung. I believe it is rung 8. Also fried onion bits are not on the Induction list of veggies.

      Ok...so supposedly we aren't allowed more than 20gs of carbs per day. But...on the atkins.com web site, there is a 2005 2 week Induction meal plan that shows a daily.
