Many of us enjoy eating finger foods because they are easy to eat and don’t require the use of utensils. Sometimes, we tend to find ourselves eating finger foods that aren’t beneficial to our health, such as French fries, chips, and candy. A good way to satisfy our craving for finger foods but stay away from junk food is to replace them with fruits or vegetables.
One vegetable that you can get creative with is the green bean. Green beans are packed with fiber and vitamins such as A, C, K, B6, and folic acid. Consuming foods such as green beans can greatly benefit your health by decreasing your risk for cardiovascular disease, colon cancer, and diabetes. Green beans can also help boost your immune system, protect your vision, promote bone health, aid in digestion, and much more!
