OVEN ROASTED GREEN BEANS

My husband is a pretty good eater when it comes to veggies, but he’s no fan of green beans. That is, until I made them using this recipe.

So many people don’t like green beans. My theory is that they were fed canned green beans or overcooked frozen green beans when they were a kid and it ruined them for life.

When you take fresh green beans, like I do in this recipe, and roast them to perfection with a few simple ingredients, the result is tender, chewy, flavorful green beans. So good.

This oven roasted green bean recipe is fantastic for any kind of weeknight dinner but also for holiday dinners like Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Ingredients needed for this recipe:

• fresh green beans
• olive oil
• lemon juice
• fresh garlic
• salt
• grated parmesan cheese
