Pregnancy Snack: Toasty Green Beans

Marcie Jones Leave a Comment

Quick and easy with a delicious nutty flavor, green beans are full of fiber (3.4 grams per cup), vitamin C and only 30 calories. Serve them in place of french fries or as a snack on movie night.

  • One pound fresh washed and dried green beans
  • 2 tbs. olive, grapeseed or other vegetable oil
  • Salt, pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Spread beans onto a baking pan. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Roast in the preheated oven until beans are slightly shriveled and have brown spots, about 20 minutes.

Scoop into a bowl.

Add to taste:

  • sliced almonds
  • chili flakes
  • garlic salt
  • curry powder
  • balsamic vinegar
  • crumbled feta or goat cheese
