ROASTED GREEN BEANS AND MUSHROOMS
SERVES 4
This is another easy, healthy and delicious recipe for green beans. I prefer to use cremini, or baby portobello, mushrooms. However, any button mushroom will do.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound fresh green beans, stem ends removed, rinsed and drained well
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, halved or quartered, depending on size
- 2 large cloves garlic, crushed, peeled and coarsely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil, about 2 teaspoons
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 425° F. For easy cleanup, line a large baking sheet or shallow baking dish with foil. Spray lightly with olive or cooking oil spray. Place the beans on the sheet, then add the mushrooms, garlic, marjoram, thyme, salt, pepper and just enough olive oil to coat lightly. Toss to combine, then spread into one layer. Bake until the beans are tender and lightly browned, about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on size. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and roast until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. These may be served hot, warm or room temperature.
