Today I wanted to share with you one of my favorite fast and fresh side dishes: Asian Stir-fry Green Beans. Cooked in a wok, they are first blanched then stir-fried with garlic, sesame oil, and teriyaki sauce. They are vibrant, crisp, healthy, and delicious… just like another one of my favorites: Healthy Choice Café Steamers. These meals are my go-to option for a delicious, fresh and filling meal on a busy weekday lunch or dinner.

With 100 percent natural proteins and absolutely no artificial ingredients, Healthy Choice Café Steamers are the first and only meals featuring a tray-in-tray steam cooking method that separates ingredients during heating to unlock freshness you can see and taste.

There are over a dozen Healthy Choice Café Steamers meals, all with less than 310 calories and more than 18 grams of 100-percent natural protein. Even better, since the ingredients aren’t frozen in the sauce they have a fresh, more vibrant taste.

Instructions

You will need a wok or large skillet to stir fry.

Add green beans and cook for 30 seconds then remove to a large bowl filled with ice water.
Now empty the water from the wok and add sesame oil.
