World's Best Green Beans

Submitted by Lorraine of AZ

"This recipe is from "The Roasted Vegetable" by Andrea Chesman. Roasted vegetables are extra delicious because the sugars in the vegetables caramelize in the oven giving the vegetables sweetness and crunch. These beans are irresistable and may be served as a side dish, snack or hors d'oeuvre"
