What is Everything But the Bagel Seasoning?
It's a very popular seasoning blend invented (we think) by Trader Joe’s! It’s delicious on eggs, veggies, salads, avocado toast...we’re addicted! Everything But the Bagel seasoning is inspired by the topping on Everything bagels, so it’s got poppy seeds, black and white sesame seeds, dried garlic and onion, and coarse salt. Many other brands have also come up with similar Everything Bagel Seasoning Blends.
How to Roast Green Beans
- Step 1: This is such a simple process, and the result is so tasty you’ll find yourself making it again and again!

- Step 3: Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with Everything But the Bagel Seasoning.
- Step 4: Roast in the oven at 400F for 35 minutes.

Substitutions

Seasoning - Try swapping out the Everything But the Bagel Seasoning for Crazy Good Shawarma seasoning Awesome Garam Masala, Exotic Dukkah, or simply salt, pepper garlic powder, and parmesan cheese.
Recipe Tips
- Baking time for green beans will vary depending on if they're fresh or frozen and their size.
- Make sure to keep the green beans in a single layer so they roast and caramelize evenly.
- Check the green beans after 20 minutes and stir.
- Roasted Green Beans should be caramelized and slightly chewy.

Cindy
These green beans are delicious and easy to make... my kind of recipe!!!
Vicky & Ruth
Thank you! We are really getting into the few ingredient recipes!
Dorothy
Hi: With the US-Canada border still closed, I'm down to my last bottle of TJ's Everything but the Bagel. But we love green beans, so a good shake on roasted beans is gonna be a happening thing, as we used to say in the (sigh!) good old days of the 60s.
By the way, TJ's EBTB is terrific in home-made challah. Mix some right into the dough before kneading.
Vicky & Ruth
Hi Dorothy, we are so sorry you are on your last bottle of TJ's Everything but the bagel seasoning. Send us an email if you would like us to ship some bottles to you. We do sprinkle EBTB on our challah, but never tried it inside the dough, it is definitely going on our next challah.
Dorothy
Hi Vicky & Ruth:
Many thanks for your kind and thoughtful offer to ship me some of the TJ's seasoning. Very appreciated but it will spoil me for all the TJ's products we're missing (sigh!).
Speaking of TJ's, permit me this suggestion for dynamite coleslaw: when making your favorite slaw recipe, add one or two tablespoons of the bottled marinade from Trader Joe's Hot and Sweet Jalapenos (kosher). Really good.
Best wishes for continued good health to all,
Vicky & Ruth
You are very welcome. We will have to go check those hot and sweet jalapenos out. Thank you for the suggestions, feel free to share your ideas at any time!

If using frozen green beans (Trader Joe’s frozen green beans are the BEST!), do I spread them out on the parchment paper frozen or defrosted?
I’m looking forward to making these
Vicky and Ruth
Bake them frozen. We love Trader Joe's Green beans too!
