Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound green beans trimmed
  • 1 head garlic 10 to 12 cloves, smashed
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • ¼ cup pine nuts toasted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat & Prepare the Baking Sheet: Set your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
  • Season & Roast the Green Beans: In a large bowl, toss the green beans with the smashed garlic, olive oil, salt, and red pepper flakes. Spread them evenly on the baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes. Stir, then roast for another 10 minutes until they develop a golden-brown color.
