Roasted Parmesan Green Beans
Over the holiday break, we had a terrible cold snap which forced us indoors more than we’d have liked. Yet, the house all warm and the need for comfort just meant that I spent a lot of time in the kitchen making new recipes {and updating old ones with prettier new images}. You’ll see an influx of recipes posted here for the next few weeks, since a lot of the recipes I tried were winners and dare worthy of sharing.
Roasted Parmesan Green Beans is one example! I make green beans as a meal side dish quite often, yet wanted to try a new twist on a favourite.
Usually I steam or boil green beans and then lightly toss with butter, salt and pepper before serving. Especially with my recipe for the Beat Meatloaf ever! Which is totally fine and yummy. Yet one day I craved something newish for one of my favourite vegetables sides.
I had some parmesan left over from a pasta dish I made earlier in the week, along with some panko crumbs from crispy chicken for lunchtime wraps. I’m trying to get better at using up ingredients, far too often I use them for one sole reason then they go to waste. So, these became staples for this new green bean side dish recipe!
Roasted Parmesan Green Beans is easy peesy to make and the taste is fab. Baking with these few ingredients gives it a bit of a crunch. While my kids aren’t green-bean-picky, I can see how this recipe would entice those that usually turn up the nose at the sight of green beans. A crispy parmesan and crumb coating? Yes please!
Here’s the simple recipe my friends, enjoy! Don’t forget to try Oven Roasted Red Potatoes – it’s another favourite!

These look really tasty. And I think most veggies taste better roasted, seems to bring out some sweetness in the vegetable. Thanks for sharing.

Great timing! I am also making more of an effort to using up ingredients, so I just made bread crumbs with bread ends with the new food processor my mother in law gave me for Christmas. I am now looking for things to add them to! Also looking for recipes that use apple sauce. I make muffins with it, but the jar always goes moldy before I go to use it again. No more!!!
Love green beans! 🙂 I used to combine them with roasted potatoes, with garlic. Will try this for sure!

Alison Braidwood says
This looks so good! I’m terrible for buying green beans and then letting them rot in my crisper drawer. This might actually inspire me to eat them :0
Elizabeth Matthiesen says
These sound good, I find that green beans usually taste pretty bland when just cooked normally this will no doubt improve their taste no end, thanks for sharing.
Jennifer Wilson says

These look delicious! And since our family has some leftover Parmesan cheese from a recent pasta dish, we can make this (just got to pick up some green beans and panko).

These look great! I love green beans but someone in my home does not so I don’t eat them much anymore.. I’m gonna see if he’ll eat this though.. Looks amazing! Thank you for sharing!
Susan T. says
I love green beans. I’ll even eat the soggy canned ones. Lol! No one in my family gives them enough love so maybe if they were crispy and cheesy they would get the love they deserve!

I’m not a big fan of green beans, but I would love to try these ones, they sound very good!!

What a great idea to roast the beans, and to use the panko. I also have a box of it sitting in my cupboard, for the one recipe that calls for it. I need to start getting a bit more creative as well!
HEIDI C. says
What a yummy way to jazz up green beans. My kids would like the panko crumbs and gobble these up.
Julie F says
That will be a nice way to jazz up beans when we have a dinner party!

I really like the sound of these green beans. Usually we just boil them without salt or anything else. We will give this recipe a try and very soon.
