You may be wondering how do I prepare green beans.

Preparing green beans has a lot to do with whether they are fresh, canned, or frozen.
Also, whether you want green beans that are long or short for whatever you are preparing.

For this recipe you should use fresh green beans rather than the frozen or canned varieties.

To prepare the fresh green beans, rinse them in running water. Then trim off the ends and then allow them to dry (pat them down with a clean kitchen or paper towel if needed).

Tips for roasting green beans.

Roasting green beans works best when you use fresh green beans rather than the canned version. I would suggest baking the canned version of green beans in a baking dish for best results.

Here are some more great tips for you.

  1. This recipe is for a basic oven roasted lemon and garlic green bean side dish. Feel free to omit the lemon or garlic if you prefer to.
  2. It is preferred that you use fresh or frozen green beans for this recipe as they will hold their shape better. To prevent canned green beans from turning to mush while roasting, roast them at a lower temperature and keep a good eye on them.
  3. Yes, this is a recipe for roasted green beans. However, you could make this recipe using fresh asparagus or even peapods. Using a combination of these vegetables is another great option for you to try.

Here is how to make roasted green beans without the lemon and garlic.

Just in case you are looking for a basic roasted green bean recipe without the added flavors, you can easily make your green beans too. Simply start by preparing your green beans as stated above (remove the rough ends, wash, and pat dry).

Green beans (1 pound fresh), Olive Oil (½ tablespoon), and Seasonings as desired( This can include Italian Seasonings,Mediterranean Diet Seasoning Blend, Salt, and/or Pepper). Toss the green beans in the other ingredients and bake for 20 minutes at 400 or until they begin to brown.
