Happy Fry-Day
French fries are an American classic and there’s no denying that they’ve become a delicious staple alongside many of our favorite dishes!
So here’s the good and the bad news…
The bad - French fries are typically deep fried and high in sodium. While that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy them, they are a food we want to be having in moderation.
The good - There are so many healthier fry alternatives, and I’ve rounded up my favorites!
So let’s get started!
I wasn’t always a fan of green beans but dang are these good! Baked to perfection, these green bean fries make for a delicious & healthy summer side! Check out the recipe here.
