Thank God it’s green bean spaghetti. I mean, who would have known how delicious this simple meal could be. Anyone who knows me knows that I’m not big on noodles. I am not a carb junkie like so many other people say they are. I love my pizza, I can dig some bread, down with donuts, but noodles can take a hike. Well, my wife decided that she wanted to use green beans in place of spaghetti noodles when we made it for the kids. We had it a time or two in the past but always used the frozen green beans. I finally confessed that I hate the way they taste and decided to buy canned green beans. BOOM! Now it’s delicious. Green beans, spaghetti sauce, some turkey (or ham)burger and Parmesan cheese and you’ve got a delicious meal with nearly nada on the calorie scale.
