    🍴 Recipe Tips

    Cooking frozen green beans is easy, but because these greens start off frozen, they do take a little longer than fresh ones would cook. This is because of the excess moisture and chill factor, but you'll notice that by the 15-minute mark they're actually looking good!

    In fact, you could be done at that point if they seem heated through, but the extra 15 minutes gives them a little firmer bite for those of us that like a crisper green bean.

    You can modify the seasonings to your own liking, but I like this simple and basic combination because it's perfect for pairing with practically anything.

    💭 FAQs

    Do you thaw frozen green beans before cooking?

    Nope! No need to thaw anything before starting this recipe for frozen green beans. Simply remove from freezer, toss in oil and seasonings and then bake. Super easy!

    Does roasting frozen green beans make them crispy?

    Yes, when you roast green beans using this oven-method, you'll find that they turn out nice and crisp or even a bit caramelized depending on how well you stirred them around at the midway point.

    How long are roasted green beans good for?

    Leftover green beans can be kept stored in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3-5 days. Simply reheat and eat when ready.

    How do you make roasted green beans taste better?

    Adding seasonings really helps to bring out better flavor from every bean. For more flavor, you can add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or even sprinkle some parmesan cheese on the green beans during the last few minutes of roasting. Yum!
