Serve something different on your next veggie tray. Crispy and spicy and charred to perfection, Fiesta Green Beans are perfect for dipping into your favorite sauce.

Who said that eating your veggies had to be boring? I say if you make a veggie more like a snack chip then the veggie eating problem is solved! Fiesta Green Beans is the solution. They are like crispy little sticks to scoop dip up with….or just enjoy on their own. I have to say that I just LOVE this recipe!

If you know me, then you know that I have a pathologic need for salty, crunchy snacks.  When asked what one thing I would take with me to a deserted island…I did not name anything remotely practical – my answer was… Doritos! But I might change my answer after eating these babies…yum!

Ingredients to make Fiesta Green Beans

  • Green Beans
  • Oil
  • Taco Seasoning

The recipe is super easy! Just throw 2 pounds of green beans on an oiled baking sheet. Toss them in a little more oil and then sprinkle on the fiesta flavor! I use my own Homemade Taco Seasoning but store-bought is just fine. Bake for about 30 minutes in a 425 degree oven and you have these crispy, delicious Fiesta Green Beans!

Serving Suggestions: Serve with a side of Homemade Ranch Dressing, Garlic Dill Aioli or Creamy Herb Greek Yogurt Dressing.
