Roasted Parmesan Green Beans

recipe from skinnytaste.com

It is not an easy feat to get my family to eat their vegetables. A hint of green usually results in "the face". Like they have just smelled something bad. So, I have had to be creative in incorporating them into our meals. 


I am up for the challenge and have quite a few recipes coming up to share with you that have fresh veggies as a main ingredient. 


Here is a super easy side dish with a little flair that requires no utensils when eating. I may or may not have had my fair share of these before they actually went to the dinner table. Mmmmm.


Ingredients:
12 oz. fresh green beans, trimmed and dried
2 tsp. olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 1/2 TBLS. shredded Parmesan cheese 


Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lay beans evenly on the sheet and drizzle with oil. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Toss evenly to coat and then spread the beans evenly again in the pan.

Bake 10 minutes. Shake the pan to turn and bake another 5 minutes.


Remove from oven and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
