Good to Know
Fresh or frozen whole beans are your safest bet, since they are just beans with nothing added. Watch the canned varieties and any "green bean casserole" mix, where cream-of-mushroom soup, fried onion toppers, and sometimes added sugar can push the carbs well past what a plain cup gives you. Roasting them in olive oil or wrapping a handful in bacon adds the fat that this vegetable lacks on its own (only 0.1 g per cup), which helps round out a keto plate.
