We loved the taste of parmesan and green beans. This is a great side dish for the holidays.

This was a wonderful and healthy substitute for the traditional green bean casserole for holiday dinner. I used panko for breadcrumbs, and the small thin green beans (frozen). No leftovers.

My husband and I both loved this. I cute the recipe in half and cut the butter to 1/4 tablespoon (to accomodate a lower fat diet) and it was plenty for flavor. This is something I could serve at a dinner party.
