Roasted Green Beans

Our family loves these. What a healthy, nice recipe!
(Update) While I really liked them when I first made these, after a few changes, I am loving them even more. I used extra fine frozen greens beans from Aldi. I roasted them (frozen) at 420 for 40-50 minutes. I also omitted the pepper. I served them with balsamic reduction (just boil a cup of balsamic vinegar for about 20 minutes or until it reduces a little to make a light syrup). Soooo fantastic this way!! Would highly recommend trying them with the vinegar reduction.

For an extra touch you can finish them off with a little Parmesan and a few squeezes of fresh lemon juice. But they are perfect "as is" too.

This really doesn't need another five star rating, but I have to give it one anyway! I roasted a mountain of green beans from Costco in a glass baking dish, and didn't measure anything. I used olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic salt. Yum. It probably took about forty minutes of roasting time Yum.

What a wonderful treat. Everyone loved this dish. I added sliced Vadalia onions to the green beans, along with Mrs. Dash, which added a sweet taste. This did take me 50 minutes to roast.

I am not a fan of fresh green beans so I was very wary of preparing these, however, I needn't have been. I did adjust the recipe just a tad, adding grated garlic and parmesan cheese to the beans prior to roasting. I am actually looking forward to making these again - soon. Thanks for posting Seamouse and showing me I, too, can like fresh green beans :)

Wow, these are super! Such great flavor. Next time I am going to try to increase the temp and decrease the cooking time to see if I can get the char flavor but still have crisp tender beans (vs. soft).

This is one of our favorite recipes. We have it at LEAST once a week and hubby and I can eat about a pound of these each to ourselves! They really do make you feel like you're eating chips or fries but so, so much better!

Love these! I agree, no matter how many I make, it's never enough. I use frozen organic whole green beans from Costco with good results. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Great recipe! It's easier to get the beans to brown if the pan isn't crowded. Another recipe I have says to turn up the oven to 500, so I went with 450. I added about 10 cloves of peeled and lightly crushed garlic and salted the beans once they were roasted. Pure heaven! Thanks.

I am completely suprised! I would never have thought about roasting green beans, but they turned out great! Crispy and kind of sweet when they were done. Even the dog ate the one that fell on the floor. Thanks!

Yummy, Yum! My husband told me I never have to make green beans any other way. I used 1 lb green beans and 1 tbl olive oil-- perfect ratio. Thanks!

Easy, quick and nutritious. I made 4# that was gone in a flash. Concentrated vitamins and no worries about over/undercooking it. I used the petite frozen ones from Costco that I thawed overnight. It did take longer to cook than the recipe states, but I just kept turning them. A real hit at Thanksgiving. First time they were all gone (had steamed them in prior years). Thanks!

Loved these yummy beans! I never thought I'd be one to binge on green beans, but that's exactly what I did. These were SUPER easy and I combined them with Fast! Potatoes Baked in the Micro and Oven With Sea Salt Crust Fast! Potatoes Baked in the Micro and Oven With Sea Salt Crust for a one-dish awesome vegetable side dish!

Absolute favorite recipe!! We like the original, but we also add potatoes and put it on the grill in a cast iron skillet and cook until potatoes are crispy and that is amazing too!!

Pretty good. Either I had more than 2 lbs of beans or you really need two pans. Other than that, this is a great recipe. I have made similar before, but I like having it someplace easily accessible. Used the maximum cooking time and they could have gone longer but, again, my beans really were not in a single layer. I served this with Chicken Fingers With Plum Dipping Sauce.

The family requested these for Thanksgiving and they were the hit of the meal! I don't make any changes to the recipe except for roasting a little longer- full of flavor and never a leftover! I can't tell you how many times I've made them since I saw this recipe. Thank you Seamouse and happy holidays :)

I gave this recipe 3 stars. I rerated this recipe as the first time my family wasn't crazy over these beans but this time we liked them better. My 6 yr old newphew & 7 yr old niece didn't like these at all. My future hubby said they were ok which was the first review I guess I would agree. First of all I didn't make 2 pounds just a couple of handfuls to try these as this was my first time using fresh green beans and as that's what we had on hand. Mine didn't really look like the pictures the first time I made these mine looked liked they were have the size of the ones in the pictures. Maybe they didn't need as much time to cook as the thicker ones tasted so sweet and yummy. The first time I cooked mine for 25 minutes and the second time I cooked them for 20 minutes. Overall these did taste good. I will make these again! Thanks for posting a good recipe! Christine (internetnut)

Such an easy recipe. I used garlic salt instead of regular salt, but otherwise left the recipe alone. Turned out great! Thanks for sharing!
