Green Beans and Butter
Phooey. After deciding I actually like healthy green beans steamed with butter, I logged it on the food counter and my butter added 200 calories to my day. Not such a great 2nd day. Anyone else need the flavor of butter to eat cooked green beans? Have you found an alternative. Thanks.
