EQUIPMENT NEEDED

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato
  • 12 oz fresh green beans

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder

  • Add the sweet potato and green beans to a parchment lined sheet pan.
  • Drizzle the oil and sprinkle the seasonings over the veggies.

  • Bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes or until fork tender.

Notes

Storing and Reheating
Storing: Let everything cool completely before tossing it into an airtight container. It'll keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheating: When you're ready to reheat, the oven is your best friend. Spread the veggies out on a baking sheet and warm them at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, or until they’re hot and crispy again. If you're short on time, the microwave works, but just know the texture will be a little softer, still tasty, just not as crisp.
Bonus move? Toss leftovers into a skillet with a splash of oil and sauté them for a few minutes until warmed through. Crispy edges come back to life like magic!
Tips
  • Soggy veggies? Don’t overcrowd them! Layer the vegetables in a single layer and flip or toss halfway through to promote even browning.
  • Want extra crispy veggies? Slide your empty sheet pan into the oven while it preheats. Then when you add your veggies, they will get that nice roasted edge faster.
  • Burnt spots? Flip or stir halfway through. This helps both sides get golden and avoids burnt spots.
