Roasted Green Beans with Cranberries, Almonds + Orange

The simple combination of orange zest, cranberries, and sliced almonds elevates these simply roasted green beans from Tuesday night side dish to a place on your holiday table.

Just remember, not to over crowd your beans on the pan, otherwise, they will end up steamed instead of roasted (which isn’t the end of the world but roasted definitely adds more depth of flavor).
