Green beans, dried

Dried green beans are green beans with most of their water removed. They provide carbohydrate, fibre and protein. Per 100g, they contain 32g of carbohydrate, including 23g of sugars, alongside 35g of fibre and 22g of protein. These nutrient values are calculated from raw green beans and describe the dried form, rather than beans prepared for eating.

Fibre helps support normal bowel function, while protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Drying concentrates nutrients, including sugars, into a smaller weight of food, which is worth noting when considering carbohydrate or sugar intake. The full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
