It’s December, and I thought we should start out the holiday season with some new photos for this favorite red and green side dish that I’ve been making for a few years now! You want special side dishes for holiday meals and these Roasted Green Beans and Red Bell Pepper with Garlic and Ginger are not only beautifully red and green for the holidays, but they’re delicious! And for the updated recipe I added an extra red bell pepper for a bit more color.
And this colorful side dish is also easy to make! The beans and peppers roast at high heat for a short time, so they can cook while you’re coming up with the final touches on the meal. Stay tuned for some more festive food ideas coming up during December. I’m not much of a baker, but I’ve even been working on some cookie recipes, so let the holiday season begin!
How to Make Roasted Green Beans and Red Bell Pepper:
(This is just a summary; scroll down for printable recipe with nutritional information.)
- Preheat oven to 450F/230C.
- Mince the garlic and ginger and mix with the olive oil.
- Let those ingredients flavor the oil while you cut up the red peppers and trim the beans.
- Toss beans and peppers with the olive oil mixture.
- Spread the beans and peppers out on a large baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer as much as you can.
- Beans take about 20 minutes to cook; they’re done when a few beans are starting to look browned and they’re tender-crisp.
- Season the cooked beans with salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
