Roasted Green Beans

This recipe began life as Oven Roasted Green Beans by Emeril Lagasse. Green bean measurement is omitted because Peter is in charge of eyeballing them; Emeril had said 1 ½ lbs for six people, with the same amount of spices.

Serves 2.

Directions

1. Trim the beans.

4. Roast 15 minutes at 400°, stirring halfway through.

Variants
