I first reviewed Birds Eye Steamfresh Cut Green Beans way back in 2008, so it was definitely time for an update. Birds Eye Steamfresh Vegetables are packaged in a special custom designed bag. While microwaving, this special bag becomes a steaming vessel as it puffs up under the pressure of the steam created within the bag. Vegetables are steamed to a crisp, colorful and tasty perfection.

The package of Birds Eye Steamfresh Cut Green Beans that I bought is part of the "Pure & Simple" line, which means that it's not enhanced with any sauces or seasonings. The ingredients list simply states "green beans" and that's the way I like it. Green beans are my favorite veggies to eat cooked/ steamed, and this came out just as I expected - firm with a little softness to it and fresh but with a hint of sweetness.
Each 2/3 cup serving of Birds Eye Steamfresh Cut Green Beans provides 30 calories, no fat or sodium, 1 gram of protein, 2 grams of fiber (8% of the daily value) and 2 grams of sugars. There are about 4 servings in the 1 ounce (340 gram) bag that I bought for $1.93, so save extras in an airtight container for another meal - or snack on it throughout the day. Yes - I love green beans that much!
Don't hesitate to buy this in the grocery store if you see it. I ALWAYS have frozen veggies in my freezer - some steamable and some which can be made on the stove-top.
