Oh my goodness! These green gems are simply delicious and yes, a bit addicting. The flavors of the already yummy green beans coated with the lightly nutty flavor of flax meal (a fantastic source of omega-3), salt, pepper, and avocado oil make these roasted green bean “fries” a healthy and scrumptious snack.
You most often see this recipe with regular green beans, but I had a bunch of the thin green beans, known as haricots, so that is what I used. Whichever green beans you use – you will be happy to add this recipe to your go-to snack options.
Plus only five ingredients!?! You can’t go wrong with that!
