Chili String Beans

String beans are low in fat and offer an excellent source of protein, fiber, and complex carbs. They are also a very good source of folic acid and molybdenum, while providing significant amounts of iron, phosphorus, magnesium, manganesese, and potassium.

Due to their rich source of fiber, beans are great for lowering cholesterol. Studies have shown that the high fiber contained in beans prevents blood sugar levels form rising too rapidly after a meal, so eat up!

This is one of my favorite bean dishes. A spicy dish featuring stir fried string beans with lean ground pork, onions, red pepper and chili dressed with olive oil.

Ingredients:
• string beans
• 1/4lb lean ground pork
• 1/2 sliced red pepper
• 1 small onion
• 1 chili pepper
• chili flakes
• 1 clove garlic
• olive oil
• salt/pepper
