Since I’ve been at this whole eating healthier/trying to shed some weight, I’ve been trying to eat more vegetables. I like vegetables, just that sometimes I don’t pay attention to it as much as I do my protein and starch. Most of the time I like to just dump my vegetables into a pot to boil or I would buy ready-made frozen spinach where you just have to put it in a pot with a tablespoon of water and cook it.

Roasted Green Beans

Green beans are the one of our top favourite vegetables. However, my husband likes it boiled/steamed till it’s very soft (like most restaurants in Switzerland) whilst I like it still crunchy. I thought roasting it would solve our problem of having our beans two different ways as it gets soft but still has a crunch due to the high temperature of roasting it. He is not a fan of this but I love it. In fact, I just had this for lunch. Just roasted green beans. Belly is still grumbling, but what to do!
