Quick Navigation

I hope you all had an amazing weekend! Trevor and I worked, but we DID get to sneak away to have a quick brunch out on Sunday, so we still got to treat ourselves to a little relaxation. 😉

I also got all my grocery shopping done for the week, which always feels ah-mazing to get out of the way before the week actually starts.

This week, I’m testing a BUNCH of recipes, so hopefully you’ll have some amazing new crockpot, instant pot, dinner, and dessert recipes very soon!

A while back, my mom had asked me if I had any easy veggie side dishes she could add to her rotation.

And you know what?

I don’t really have any! Whaaaaaaat?!

But. Today.

We’re changing that.

With one of my all time FAVES.

Roasted Green Beans.

Yes please!

Green beans with lemon slice on a plate aboveGrowing up, green beans were one of the few vegetables I didn’t complain about eating TOO much… I think. 😉

And now, as an adult, it’s one of my absolute favorites. The best way to prepare them in my opinion?

Roasting in the oven!

It’s sooooo easy, healthy, and delicious.

All you need to do is wash and trim your green beans.

Throw them onto a silicone mat (or parchment paper) lined baking sheet and toss with melted coconut oil (or oil of choice), garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

You’ll bake ’em for about 10-15 minutes and toss them with lemon juice, walnuts, and maybe another pinch of salt.

That’s it! These roasted green beans are p.e.r.f.e.c.t.i.o.n.

I LOVE the texture of these beans – tender with a slight bite – and you can’t beat the garlic powder/onion powder situation, especially when it’s mixed with the fresh, tangy lemon juice.

You don’t have to add any nuts, but I remember my mom used to serve green beans with slivered almonds. I had walnuts, so that’s what I used, and I love the crunch they gave this dish.

These roasted green beans are easy, healthy, AND delicious enough to add to your veggie rotation every week. 🙂

PSST – they’re also vegan AND gluten free!

Yay!

    5 stars I made this recipe but left the wallnuts out. As we were invited to lunch with friends and I had to bring a side I decided to add fred bacon and paper thin slices of red onion. It was a huge hit.

    I used french beans and they turned out really tough even though they were fresh. The beans weren’t cooked even though I roasted them for 20 minutes…I then finished the job in a covered cast iron skillet. What do you think went wrong? Really wanted this to work…it looks like a super easy recipe.

      French green beans are way skinnier than standard green beans, so they’d need far less time in the oven. 🙂

    5 stars This recipe was super easy and great for bigger pole beans that can be a bit tough in other recipes. I used peanut oil rather than coconut. My partner loved these beans paired with baked tofu and coconut rice.

    5 stars My roommate and I are bowled over by this recipe. So simple and sooo delicious. I roasted fresh green beans whole after trimming the stalk end. I used peanut oil and some red chili pepper flakes to give it some heat. If you like walnuts in the least, I would make them a MANDATORY ingredient–it really sends the dish into the stratosphere. 10 out of 10 for sure!

    Great recipe! I just bought some walnuts for the first time ever so this is just perfect timing! But can you tell me if I can use frozen green beans? If so, how long should they be roasted? Thanks!

      Hi Veronica! I’d just read the directions on the bake of the green beans to see how long they need to be oven cooked. 🙂

    These look so good. I preserve a lot of my vegetables in the summer for eating throughout the winter and I’m wondering if I could use canned green beans? I realize the texture would be different. Hmmm
