Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb green beans give or take a few ounces
  • 1/4 - 1/2 tsp garlic salt (with parsley flakes) depending on how garlicy you like things
  • 1/4 cup sweetened coconut flakes
  • olive oil cooking spray extra virgin

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  • After washing and trimming your beans (just snapping off the rough ends), put them on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle with garlic salt and give it a pretty serious spraying of cooking spray.
  • Put it in the oven for 15 minutes. Pull them out, sprinkle with the coconut and put them back in the oven. Pull them back out after about four minutes and toss them lightly, then bake an additional about three minutes until the coconut is the desired level of toasted.
