Preparation Tips:

  • Wash green beans thoroughly to remove any dirt or pesticides.
  • Trim the ends and, if desired, cut them into smaller pieces to ensure they are easy to cook and puree.
  • Boil, steam, or roast until tender. Steaming preserves most nutrients and the vibrant green color.
  • Puree for younger babies or serve as soft finger food for older babies to encourage self-feeding.

Common Allergies: Allergies to green beans are rare, but it's important to monitor your baby for any signs of food allergy, such as rash, vomiting, or diarrhea, when introducing any new food.

Seasonality: Green beans are typically in season during the summer and early fall, but they are available fresh in many areas year-round. They can also be found frozen, which can be a convenient and nutritious alternative.
