Green Beans - S2E5
Best raw or lightly blanched - a crunchy crossover snack between legumes & veggies. Full of fiber & packed with vitamins B, C & K plus a healthy dose of essential folate. An all year round, inexpensive snack - perfect for school, road trips and picnics.

Grapes - S2E6
With a deliciously sweet taste, both red & green grapes have a low glycemic-index, so they don't create a sugar rush. They deliver a stunning array of phytonutrients. We recommend buying organic since grapevines get regularly drenched in pesticides!
