Green Beans with Cranberries and Walnuts

This recipe is a lovely compliment for your Christmas dinner. The citrus brightens the flavor of frozen green beans and gives them a fresh taste.
Serves 6-8

• 1 kg frozen green beans
• 3 cloves of garlic, slivered
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• handful of dried cranberries
• 1 cup of toasted nuts, chopped (walnuts were my choice)
• 1 lime, zested and juiced

1. Roast the green beans and garlic drizzled with olive oil  at 425 for about 20 or minutes or until they begin to turn color.
2. Toss with the lime zest and juice, add cranberries and toasted walnuts. Serve on a platter.
