Green bean recipe looks great, and simple. Very good for Thanksgiving when attention and efforts will be on other dishes. But, a little quibble: you promote the use of foil excessively. It’s an environmental disaster, from mining to manufacturing, packaging, distributing, using and disposal. And it’s not necessary! Grease the baking sheet; when the dish is done, let it soak with a solution of baking soda or even a bit of dishwasher detergent. The small amount of work is worth it. And you’ll save money; foil is expensive. Thanks for the thoughtful and delicious recipes, but maybe keep an eye on minimizing negative environmental impacts. (p.s. same goes for excessive use of one-time plastic.)
Great point, thanks for mentioning it, we will keep it mind.
