snap, crackle, FRY!!



Brandon and I are ADDICTED to fried green beans! Our absolute favorite fried green beans are served at PF Changs! Whenever we get the chance we make date night plans and head to PF Changs for our fav appetizer!! Mmmmm!! I can taste them as I type about them!! Obviously, though, we can't go to PF Changs every night and we certainly can't afford to eat PF Changs every night so when I was grocery shopping today I was inspired when I saw fresh green beans in the produce department. I had the boys help me load some handfuls of beans into a bag and we set out to make our own fried green beans! So ambitious...huh!?!? After Brandon got home from work we put together our own little flour mixture with different spices and started frying! I have to admit, they turned out pretty good! We cleared out a pretty big chunk of them and enjoyed every bite! Sure, we have some tweeking to do on our recipe (probably a bit more spice!) but overall they were good!! I highly doubt we'll ever reach "PF Changs level of goodness" but for a few bucks, they satisfied our craving! Oh! And Maddox had fun helping us snap the green beans and, of course, he enjoyed his fair share of the fried result!

Your dad thinks that they are healthy! The "fry" part just doesn't match "healthy"...but they are yummy, nontheless.
