1tablespoonminced garlicabout 4-6 cloves garlic
2tablespoonsfresh chopped parsleyoptional

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220 C). Remove any strings and thin ends from the green beans.
Wash green beans and add to a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic. Toss beans in olive oil to evenly coat. Arrange the green beans in one layer on baking sheet.
Roast in the oven for 15-25 minutes, pulling halfway through the cooking time to toss and sprinkle with parmesan cheese over top. You will know they are done when the green beans are fork tender or you can cook them a little more for browning and crunch.
Remove from oven, season with extra salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with parsley and more parmesan, if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Using Frozen Green Beans?You can use frozen green beans. Use whole green beans and rinse/dry them to remove any ice. Follow the instructions and cook the same as fresh green beans.Storing LeftoversStore any leftovers in an air-tight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. I do not recommend freezing them after cooking.
