roasted green beans

Fantastic green beans!

Preheat to 400 degrees

1/2-3/4 pound fresh green beans (the long skinny ones)
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon crumbled thyme leaves
1/4 teaspoon crumbled marjoram (or oregano leaves)
Salt and freshly ground Pepper

Wash the beans.
Trim off the ends.
On a cookie sheet, toss beans with oil, salt, pepper, thyme and marjoram until evenly coated. (I just use dried spices for this.)

Roast 20 minutes, turning beans once or twice for even browning.
(keep an eye on them at 15 minutes so they don't get overcooked)

Servings = 2
Total carbs = 9 approx.
net carbs per serving = 4.5 approx.
