Yellow Wax Beans

Yellow Wax Beans

EverydayFresh

Yellow wax beans are a variety of snap bean distinguished by their vibrant golden-yellow pods and mild, slightly sweet flavor. These fresh legumes share the same tender-crisp texture as green beans when cooked but contain marginally higher vitamin A and retain their bright color after steaming or boiling. Low in calories yet rich in dietary fiber, they provide a versatile vegetable option for salads, stir-fries, or simple steamed side dishes.
