PAPA MACHA HOMEGROWN GREEN BEANS
There is nothing better than the gift of homegrown vegetables (in our opinion), and these green beans are a special treat coming straight from Co-Founder, Jennifer Macha-Hebert, parents’ garden. Her dad grows green beans every year, and when he offered some to Basic Eats, the answer was immediately: YES!
These roasted green beans are fresh green beans coated in garlic, olive oil and herbs, then cooked at high heat until tender and browned, finally topped with a little parmesan cheese. A super easy side dish recipe, it’s the absolute best way to enjoy green beans!
There is also nothing easier than throwing some fresh veggies on a sheet pan with some olive oil and seasonings, then letting the oven do the rest of the work. These roasted green beans are full of flavor, and take just minutes to prepare.
To get your green beans ready for the oven, all you need to do is give them a good wash, then trim off the stem end. The fastest way to trim off the stem end is to line up a handful of green beans, then cut the stems off all at once. It makes prep time go much faster.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF GREEN BEANS:
Green beans are a very healthy vegetable and are packed with nutrients such as Vitamin A, C and K, potassium, iron, and calcium. Green beans are also low in calories, low sodium, low carb and high in fiber.
