Are you even ready for this?!?
Well, you probably are since it’s Thursday, huh? I know how you’re feelin’, it’s the “I’m so tired I don’t want to cook tonight” spiel.
Story of my life by Thursday. Amiright? But…wait for it! I have a little tale for you called…
Why Roasted Green Beans with Lemon and Garlic won’t make your Thursday Suck:
- They are fast
- They are easy
- They are flippin’ delish! Not to mention-
- No guilt Friday about having drive thru (save that for Saturday, yo!) ;)
I’m serious y’all, you can have a homemade dinner in no time with these AMAZE roasted green beans. Just throw some meat on the grill or roast/bake some in the oven.
We like to roast our 2-ingredient high heat whole chicken (recipe coming soon!) for an easy and quick homemade meal. See? No need to have drive-thru guilt on a Friday morning. Save it for when you can be guilty in bed, relaxing and watching tv (hey there weekends!).
Buhahahaha (that’s me laughing hysterically)– Relaxing? Bed? On weekends? Not with 3 kiddos. ;)
The 4 Must-Have Ingredients to make these Roasted Green Beans with Lemon and Garlic:
- Green Beans
- A Fresh Lemon
- Cloves of Garlic
- Olive Oil
We also use salt and pepper, but I never count those as ingredients because most people have them hangin’ around. I think I even remember always having them in college. Hey- there may have been absolutely no food in the house (except for ramen noodles-don’t judge a sistah!), but we for-sure had salt and pepper in the cabinet. ;)
