Ingredients
– 1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
2. In a large bowl, toss the green beans with olive oil until evenly coated.
3. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Toss again to ensure the green beans are well-seasoned.
4. Spread the seasoned green beans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, use a spatula to flip the green beans and continue roasting for an additional 10 minutes, or until the beans are tender and the cheese is golden brown.
6. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
