what are these: pale yellow, look like green beans?
I had some veggies with my steak up at Carrows (the one at Western and
Westmont, between RPV and San Pedro, in case you're in the area). Green beans, carrots, and yellow bean-things that looked like green beans but they were a pale yellow. There weren't too many and they didn't seem carby, so I ate a few. I'd like to find out what they are so that I can look them up in the usda database. Thanks -- Mike |

They seem to be much like the green beans, just yellow |

They're called Yellow Beans. At 1g/oz, raw, they're the same as green beans. |

You can also get purple beans, but those turn green when you cook them. I get a mixed seed pack for my garden each year, as the wax beans usually are ready to pick before the green and purple beans are. -- "[xxx] has very definite opinions, and does not suffer fools lightly.

what are these: pale yellow, look like green beans?
As others have posted, these are yellow or wax beans. In the summer, I love
to make a mixed bean salad with these, green beans, some kidney beans, chopped onion and garlic, a little olive oil, and apple cider vinegar. Plus salt 'n pepper. If you like this type of salad sweet, add a little of an artificial sweetener of your choice. Not very carby, especially if you keep the proportion of kidney beans low, and very refreshing and pretty. I like red onion with this, mostly for the appearance. HG "em" wrote in message ...
