Candied Pecan Green Beans

These candied pecan green beans are sweet, spicy, and the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, or any regular old dinner. I roasted the pecans on the stove with sage, rosemary, cinnamon, maple syrup, and other spices, and they're so so good. They're the perfect topping for crunchy fresh green beans.
