Roasted Green Beans

Green Beans are one of my favorite foods. Most people aren't huge fans of vegetables, but the secret with vegetables is that you have to cook them right, in a way that enhances their flavors. For example, boiling green beans would leave them bland and boring. But roasting them, will bring out the flavors and make a great dish.

Ingredients:
1 pound of green beans
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Lemon or lime to drizzle

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees.

Wash the green beans Cut the ends off of them.

Toss the green beans with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a flat baking sheet, and place in the oven.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, then serve! Squeeze some lemon on it if you want a citrus hint.
