Green Bean Fries With Two Delicious Dips

Discover the story
Trying to find a healthy appetizer to please everyone in the family, we think this one is it!

Fries don’t have to be a guilty pleasure, especially when they are made with vitamin-rich green beans and baked in the oven rather than fried. Carmen over at Every Last Bite shared this recipe with us, and it is the perfect party snack!

She coated these beans (which are very high in fiber) in gluten-free breadcrumbs and cornmeal for added crunch. We have also included two delicious dips, garlicky herb yogurt, and a spicy sriracha dip, which are both made with fat-free Greek yogurt and packed full of flavor.  Unlike other fries, these green bean fries don’t get soggy, so you can make a big batch and still enjoy their crispy crunch hours after baking.

Happy dipping!

 

Green Bean Fries With Two Delicious Dips

Prep Time 30 minutes
Servings 3

Ingredients

Beans
  • 1/2 lb. green beans, trimmed
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free flour
  • 2 eggs
  • olive oil cooking spray
Herb Yogurt Dip
  • 1/3 cup fat free Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 tsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1-1/2 tsp. garlic salt
Sriracha Dip
  • 2 tbsp. fat-free Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp fat-free mayonnaise
  • 2 tsp. Sriracha sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  
  • Make the two dips by combining the ingredients for each in bowls and stirring until well combined. Store in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • In a bowl combine the cornmeal, breadcrumbs, paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder.
  • Place the flour on a plate. Crack the two eggs into a bowl and whisk.
  • Wash the green beans. Working in batches, coat the beans in the flour, dip them into the egg, and dredge in the breadcrumb mixture until well coated.
  • Lay the beans out evenly on a baking sheet. Lightly spray the beans with cooking spray.
  • Bake the beans in the oven for 12-15 minutes until they are crispy and golden in color. Test a bean to ensure that it’s cooked and tender on the inside. 
  • Serve the green bean fries with the two dipping sauces.
