    Why is this recipe so high in carbs? Other green bean dishes are fewer carbs for larger portions. The spices have no carbs, garlic and ginger in these amounts are minimal in carbs, and the 9 ounces of green beans are divided across 4 portions to approximately 2.7 carbs per portion. So how do you get 9.1 net carbs per 3-ounce serving. Something is wrong. Please reply before I recalculate it myself.
