Fresh green beans are tossed with Sriracha, honey, soy sauce, and sesame oil and then roasted to hot, crisp perfection to create these immensely snackable spicy green beans.

Spicy Green Beans

This green beans inspired by one of our long-time favorite broccoli recipes, and this was an excellent idea, let me tell you. If you’re bored with the usual green beans you make, give these a try!

The awesomeness of these spicy green beans is in the glaze. It’s a simple combination of soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and of course, a squeeze of Sriracha. If you aren’t a fan of much heat, go easy on the hot sauce. If you’re like my boys, make it a generous squeeze and enjoy the sweet-heat.

The glaze here hits every note: salty, savory, sweet, and spicy. As the beans roast, they’ll develop a little char on their edges while soaking up all that sauce, making them impossible to resist.

They’re bold enough to stand out next to the main dish, but I’m telling you from personal experience, they’re irresistible on their own, straight off the pan. I have to practice some serious restraint to make sure there will be enough left to serve with our meal whenever I make these.

Sweet and Spicy Green Beans

My love for big green salads has no limits, and I’ve been known to transform all kinds of comfort food into my kind of salad. I’m laughably known for my Fritos-Every-Day-Diet, as corn chips are my salad topping of choice most days.

Street tacos meet the Big Green Salad in this Carnitas Salad Bowl that I can’t get enough of lately. Crunchy lettuce is layered with juicy carnitas, tomatoes, avocado, onions, corn, beans, and cheese, then topped with a squeeze of lime. While I’m a huge fan of homemade salad dressings, this salad is so flavorful I just squeeze a lime over the top and finish with a sprinkling of salt and pepper.

This BLT Salad is fully loaded with crunchy romaine lettuce, sweet tomatoes and fresh corn, salty bacon, rich and creamy avocado slices, cubed cheddar cheese, crunchy croutons, and the perfect ranch dressing.

BBQ chicken salad with sweet potato fries has become one of my favorite lunches over the past couple of years. This is a cold garden salad tossed with warm and saucy barbecue chicken, then topped with crisp, hot sweet potato fries.

All the awesomeness of the popular grinder sandwich is tossed into this salad with crunchy greens, juicy tomatoes, and a medley of meats and cheeses. Then it’s drizzled with a delicious creamy dressing to make this Italian grinder salad.

Pizza Salad

Fresh garden salad is topped with warm and cheesy pizza “croutons” for a fun and totally satisfying twist on pizza night. It’s playful, delicious, and as much fun to eat as
