That is ALL you need for this delicious lemon garlic shrimp, rice and green beans salad! I love meals like this because you only have to think about making one thing because it has everything all in one, as opposed to having a protein, and then having to come up with other ideas of what you are going to serve with it.

I love all of the flavors in this dish. The roasted green beans give a deep flavor, while the parmesan cheese adds umami and the lemon gives a nice zing at the end.

A quick story about green beans- so my mother in law used to hate green beans. But she had only had them boiled in water and topped with some butter and salt. But then I roasted green beans for her, got them nice and crispy with a little bit of char and SHE LOVED THEM!! The way that you prepare foods makes the absolute biggest difference in how they taste! If you have only had a certain vegetable prepared one way, try preparing it another way, maybe a more exciting cooking technique, and see how you like it.

I would venture to guess that your opinion on that vegetable may change. These roasted green beans may be just the right place to start experimenting 🙂

Thanks so much for being here! I appreciate you!
