Can I use fresh cooked green beans? Would 1 pound cooked beans equal the 4 cups needed?
I’ve never made this with fresh green beans, because I don’t like the texture. But about one pound should be about right. Thanks
Can I use frozen green beans? What amount? How does it affect the points?
Frozen green beans should not affect the points. With frozen green beans you will definitely need to increase the cooking time. I have never used the frozen green beans so I don’t have any tips on that. Thanks
