Roasted Green Beans With Garlic And Pine Nuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
1 cup thinly sliced onion
10 -12 cloves garlic, peeled
salt & freshly ground black pepper
seasoning salt, like mrs. dash,optional
1 cup pine nuts, toasted
1 -2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar or 1 -2 tablespoon red wine vinegar, optional

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Line baking sheet with foil.
Place the beans, onions and garlic onto the sheet.
Drizzle with the olive oil and toss together with your hands to coat evenly.
Season GENEROUSLY with salt and pepper.
I like to use some kosher salt, as well as a few shakes of seasoned salt too.
Bake in oven for 25 minutes.
Give the beans a quick toss halfway through cook time.
At the end of 25 minutes, tsate a bean to see if it's tender to your liking.
If not, put sheet back in for another 5-10 minutes.
Remove from oven and place in serving bowl.
Drizzle with vinegar, if using, and check seasonings.
Top beans with the pine nuts, and serve.
