4–5 fresh rosemary sprigs
Lemon Garlic Green Beans:
1 pound green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons butter or avocado oil
1/2 fresh lemon
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
A few pinches of pepper, to taste
Spicy Red Sauce:
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp avocado oil
1/2–1 Tbsp red pepper flakes, to taste for spice
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
14 oz can crushed tomatoes
1/2 Tbsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp salt, more to taste
Cod:

Instructions
Rosemary Potatoes:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- In a baking dish, toss potatoes in avocado oil, black pepper, and pink salt.. Place the full rosemary sprigs on top of potatoes. Bake on middle rack until tender, 20-35 minutes. The rosemary sprigs that cooked on top of the potatoes will be dried out; break the needles off and top the potatoes with them. Throw away the stems.
Lemon Garlic Green Beans:
- Wash them and snap the ends off. Put butter into a large pan on the stove and preheat to high heat. Add green beans.
- Squeeze lemon over top and season with salt, pepper, and fresh minced garlic. Sauté for about 5-10 minutes until partly browned on the outside.
- Reduce temperature to low, cover and cook until green beans are tender to your liking, 3-8 minutes.
Spicy Red Sauce:
- Preheat a medium pan to medium heat. Once hot, add olive oil. Add the garlic and sauté for a few minutes until golden.
- Add red pepper flakes and parsley and stir.
- Add tomatoes, oregano, pepper, and salt and stir then let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Turn to low heat to keep warm until meal is ready.
Cod:
- Season fish with salt, drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil, and cook in oven at 425°F for 8-15 or so minutes, until it flakes easily with a fork (internal temp of 145ºF).
