ROASTED GREEN BEANS
In order to prepare these delicious roasted green beans I used fresh green beans. However, if they are not in season or you can’t get fresh green beans you can use frozen green beans. In this case, the cooking time for the frozen green beans will be around 5 to 10 minutes longer than using fresh green beans. Additionally, you can also use vegetables from leftovers; for example a dinner meal. This is the best way to reduce food waste too. If you know another way to use leftovers tell us in the comment section.
