Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 lb fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered

Seasonings & Oils

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes and Green Beans: Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly. Slice them in halves or quarters depending on size to ensure even cooking. Trim the green beans by snapping off the woody ends, then rinse and pat dry.
  2. Toss with Olive Oil and Seasonings: In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes and green beans. Drizzle olive oil over them, then sprinkle ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
  3. Roast the Vegetables: Spread the mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet to ensure crisping. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through to achieve golden brown potatoes and slightly blistered green beans.
  4. Serve Warm: Remove from oven and transfer to a serving dish. Add any optional garnishes like parmesan, parsley, or bacon bits if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the roasted flavors at their best.

Notes

  • Choose uniform potato sizes for even roasting.
  • Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to avoid steaming.
  • Use fresh green beans for better texture and snap.
  • Adjust seasoning after roasting to enhance flavor.
  • Convection bake can increase crispiness if available.
  • Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freeze before roasting for best texture preservation.
  • Reheat in oven or skillet to maintain crispiness; avoid microwaving.
