Instructions

- If using fresh beans, rinse them & cut them into 3″-to’4″ pieces, before steaming them for about 15 minutes, or until they are only slightly crisp.
- Set beans aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together breadcrumbs (I use crumbs from winter wheat or cracked wheat bread), basil, salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, parsley, garlic powder & Parmesan cheese.
- Add vegetable oil to crumb mixture & stir well, before setting aside 2 tablespoons of the crumb mixture for topping the casserole.
- In an ovenproof dish, combine green beans & crumb mixture, then sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.
