[kaylasgram]

Iam playing with my New Deep Fryer today & my Son had told me the other day that he LUV'S Green Bean Fries !!!

I looked~up a couple of Recipe's on the Internet, some with batter, some without some with seasoning & some without !!!

You are supposed to use fresh which I only had canned, so I opened a can & drained then very well & just tossed half into the basket at at time !!!

OMG ~ they tuned out Wonderful with a nice crunch & a slight sweet flavor !!!

I didn't even add any salt or my Fav Standby for everything Mrs Dash Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend !!!

Half of the can fried weighed 1.1 oz's = 1.45 nc

If your a Green Bean fan you might want to give them a try !!!

That sounds really tasty, Cindi
I have tried roasting them but they got burnt, so using the deep fryer seems like a better method to me. I bought a small one a few years ago which is in the cupboard so I must dig it out and get frying!

Hmmm... when determining carb counts, I always weigh foods raw, before cooking. Just checked out a can of Green Giant Cut Green Beans in my cabinet, and the nutrition facts for the whole can stated 13.7g carbs, with 3.4g fiber, making 10.3g Net Carbs for the entire can. Therefore, half of the can would have been 5.15g Net Carbs.

Comments from others about determining carb counts of cooked vegetables?

That is a good point, Mitzi.

I don't often use canned veg but when I do I use the nutrition info written on the can as you suggested.
