Oven Roasted Green Beans are so quick and easy they hardly qualify as a recipe. Yet they are so delicious your whole family will love them.
As we get older we are trying to eat healthier, especially at the holidays to avoid those extra 7 pounds each year. These Oven Roasted Green Beans offer a healthier alternative to the green bean casserole and are still full of flavor.
The roasting adds such an earthy robust flavor to the green beans. Bake just 10 minutes and they will be tender crisp. I also prefer the flavor of freshly roasted green beans compared to the standard green bean casserole. In recent years most of my family members are also trying to eat healthier so everyone has been happy with these.
I like to keep them simple. However, you could add garlic, bacon, or sprinkle parmesan cheese on top to dress them up a bit. Whatever you like.
These go great with Crock Pot Chuck Roast as the main dish.
So if you are looking for some healthier side dishes for Thanksgiving, considering adding these Oven Roasted Green Beans to your menu.

Michele, I love this idea! I don’t know why I never though to roast green beans!! I’m going to give them a try for sure. I think I’ll do a dry run just to be my uber picky and traditional mom will like them. If she does they are going on my Thanksgiving menu! Thanks so much for the great idea 🙂
