Birds Eye Steamfresh Cut Green Beans Review

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.

Flat Abs Eatin’: Birds Eye SteamFresh Veggies

I like this stuff, you guys. There’s only 3 ingredients listed on the Birds Eye SteamFresh label: Broccoli. Carrots. Cauliflower.

That’s it. Nothing else. No added crap inside.

This is uber-convenient for food-gnawing in the workplace, or when you’re simply too damn lazy to chop up some veggies by yourself.

Just throw the Steamfresh bag in the microwave as is (don’t open it!) and set the timer for 5-7 minutes. The bag will get puffed up as the veggies steam inside, and then WHA-LAHH! You’ve got yourself come perfectly steamed veggies.

I hooked up my Steamfresh blend at work by pouring it over some Minute Ready Brown Rice (cooks in 1-minute in the microwave) and then drizzling on a little bit of soy sauce. And ya, it was a soy sauce packet from last time I was at the Chinese food place. Why pay for soy sauce when you can ask for extra packets with your takeout? O_O

The normal price for SteamFresh goes for close to $4 a bag (ouch!), so I suggest you look out for these anytime they’re on sale for under $2 (I paid $1.88 for my bag) and keep them in your freezer for a future occasion when you desire to get steamy.

SteamFresh is big enough to serve two, but you know my greedy ass ate the whole damn thing by myself. Flat abs require smart food choices. Bird Eye SteamFresh is easy AND smart, so check it out ya’ll.
