I keep craving roasted vegetables. I don’t know what it is, but I’m roasting everything lately. You’d think I’d avoid it since it is summer, but I simply can’t resist. Fresh green beans were on sale and I couldn’t resist. Roasting vegetables is so easy and it brings out wonderful qualities in the veggies you just can’t get any other way. The night I made these I actually doubled the red pepper flakes because I wanted the burn. Do you ever crave heat? I totally do. Sometimes I just want it to burn my face off. As written, the recipe is only medium-spiced. You shouldn’t burn your face off. Roast those green beans! You’ll love it!
