Most people are always trying to eat healthier - I know that I am. And that includes more vegetables in my daily meals. Some people simply adore green beans. Me, I have also learned to enjoy them from year to year.

After I found this recipe, I did some research and was really amazed and very surprised to know how much good these green beans are and what they can do for us, in fact I was only to the recipe, but after my research, I knew I had to the importance and nutrients available to us in the affordable green bean.

My mother has toasted slivered almonds in butter then sprinkle it over the green beans for me to be enticed to eat my vegetables when I was a child. Well, the mother of the stunt actually worked, and I eat my green beans, it also has this little trick with the almonds over steamed broccoli - but despite all its efforts, the same trick works not only for me to Brussels sprouts, which I still problems with - for me they are baby cabbages - and you would think a gal my age would get on this subject, but I digress.

For years, I would like my green beans with toasted almonds for years until recently when I had them with sautéed mushrooms and onions. I was!

Well, like a child to eat vegetables was not my top priority and I am sure it is not your child's main gig either. And I do not blame for the BAT. We eat with our eyes, as your children, a large number to remember. To help them to eat vegetables, to see how easy it as part of their meal and not a stunt, to eat, so they can be their dessert, you must be a little creative.

You get kids to eat the Greens could be a little creative, but it's easier than you think.

1. Pre-and super important to point out, children usually eat the food they prepared. Why is this so? They are curious about their creations materialize. Just as a piece of Art Clay they have in the class if their school or happiness, art classes.

2. Have the children help you select the best looking green beans at the shop.

3. Get the children to their kid-friendly scissors cut off the ends of the Greens and rinse them under water.

4. With a kid-friendly knife - even a plastic knife, they cut the mushrooms for the recipe I share below.

5. Try growing green beans this spring, they are fast growing, the big kids can plant seeds in a circle with several large bamboo poles to keep out of the ground and bound to each other like a "Tee Pee" shape. Under normal conditions, you should start sprouts in less than 5 days. Children love to eat what they grow. Easy to choose the green beans will grow, the bamboo 'stalks' you planted - a good time to the jack and the bean stalk history, is not it?

Try several of these techniques will certainly be your child a little more interest in the experiment, their vegetables. So now that you've learned a few tricks of the trade, I would like to share with you how great these green beans are there for you.

Health Benefits of Green Beans:

Did you know that a serving of fresh green beans, a rich 25% of the vitamin K needs and is super important for maintaining strong bones? Vitamin K1 activates osteocalcin, the major non-collagen protein in bone. Osteocalcin anchors calcium molecules inside the bone. Therefore, without enough vitamin K1, osteocalcin are inadequate and the impaired bone mineralization. So, if you are worried about osteoporosis and Alzheimer's disease, green beans are a great natural helper in prevention. Vitamin K is also important for blood and it is a super green to eat for your heart - it helps prevent plaque from building along the walls of the arteries.

Green beans, while very low in calories (just 43.75 calories in a whole cup), loaded with enough nutrients, not only power, the Jolly Green Giant, but to a big smile on his face. Green beans are an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin K, how, and manganese.

Plus green beans are very good source of vitamin A (notably through its concentration of carotenoids, including beta-carotene), fiber, potassium, foliate, and iron. And green beans are a good source of magnesium, thiamine, riboflavin, copper, calcium, phosphorus, protein, omega-3-fatty acids and niacin. So eat 'em up and help yourself and your family to stay healthy!

Choosing the right kind of green beans:

Throughout the year in your store, select only fresh green beans, deep green and crunchy - pass up when they are dull, bruised and limp. Green have been in season from summer to early autumn, when they at their best and least expensive.

Perhaps you remember when you have a child, according to the "string" made by them and help your parents in preparing the dinner meal, the fresh green beans are now grown, so that these so-called "string" is so thin You can now eat, you do not have to pull the string (if it), and in fact has been, so you just snip the ends off if you eat it before!
