Easy Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Green Beans

Kaleena Martinez
These roasted sweet potatoes and green beans come together in just 30 minutes with a handful of pantry seasonings. Crispy on the edges, tender in the middle, and easy enough for a weeknight but pretty enough for a holiday table.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED

  • sheet pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 12 oz fresh green beans
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Cut the sweet potato into ½-inch cubes, and trim the green beans, cutting any extra-long ones in half so everything cooks evenly.
  • Spread the sweet potato and green beans in a single layer on a parchment-lined sheet pan, leaving a little space between pieces so they roast instead of steam.
  • Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle the seasonings evenly over the veggies.
  • Toss with your hands or tongs until everything is evenly coated in oil and seasoning.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flipping or tossing the veggies halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and the green beans have lightly golden edges.

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheating: For the best texture, reheat in the oven at 375°F for 8–10 minutes. The microwave works in a pinch, but the veggies will turn out softer.
Frozen green beans: You can use frozen green beans straight from the freezer, no need to thaw first. If they're very frosty, pat off the excess moisture before roasting.
Extra-crispy tip: Preheat your sheet pan in the oven while it heats up, then add the veggies to it, starting on a hot pan gives you better browning.
