but i am willing to try any recipes of a vegan version
if you wanna throw some my way
(hint hint, email me)
anyways,
our version of holiday green beans is simply tossing them with a few ingredients
and throwing them in the oven.
its simple, tasty, and cheap =]
SIMPLY ROASTED GREEN BEANS
(once again, no exact measurements!)
ingredients
- whole green beans, fresh
(ends removed and washed of course) - olive oil
- green beans
- sea salt
- fresh cracked black pepper
- garlic
(you can use fresh and minced or garlic powder) - optional: smoked paprika
directions
- preheat oven to 325*
- in a casserole dish or rimmed cookie sheet, toss your beans with olive oil, sea salt, garlic, and pepper. you don't need a ton of olive oil... just a light drizzle for flavor and to make the other ingredients stick.
- bake in the oven for approx. 20 minutes until the green beans are tender and have some light golden brown spots.
- optional... sprinkle some smoked paprika on top before you serve 'em!
yummy recipe!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDelicious recipe.
ReplyDeleteOh that looks so good! I would definitely have to add the paprika as my whole family are huge fans. I admit I love green bean casserole. I figured out it is the fried onions that I love the most about it. Well that and the mushrooms (loved mushrooms especially canned...I know most people say ick to canned but I love them). I'll have to look around to see if I still have any vegan green bean casserole recipes. I used to be vegetarian so I have a ton of cookbooks. I'll have to pull them out of the closet and look :)
ReplyDeleteYou know, I see someone else said paprika, but trying smoked paprika would really make this dish, too, I think. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually made this just last Christmas for the same reason - I didn't want anymore ho-hum green bean casserole. I just sliced up fresh garlic to roast with it, instead of mincing. Will try it with the paprika next time though!!
