Ingredients
- 2 pound sweet potatoes

- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder or 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme or your favorite herbs
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Lightly grease a large baking sheet to prevent sticking.
2. Wash, peel, and cube the sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Wash and trim the green beans, then cut them in half.
3. Place the sweet potatoes and green beans on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, brown sugar (if using), garlic powder (or minced garlic), and dried thyme (or your favorite herbs). Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
4. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes and green beans in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they’re not overcrowded.
5. Pop the tray into the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the green beans are slightly crisp and golden.
6. Once the Sweet Potato Green Bean Tray Bake is ready, serve it hot and straight from the oven.
