While reading the reviews I thought it was interesting that people either loved or hated this recipe. I thought it sounded good, but I also misread the recipe. In my head, I thought these beans went into the oven. When I realized my mistake, the recipe no longer appealed to me. I could see why the one reviewer said it tasted "sandy green beans". Maybe if the bread crumbs were sauteed in butter first and them sprinkled over the beans it would be better. I didn't use canned dry crumbs, but threw a couple of pieces of white bread into the food processor, along with fresh garlic and the cheese. I sprinkled the crumbs over the beans and poured melted butter over the dish. I put them in the oven for about twenty minutes and they came out very good. Kids and hubby loved them.

This was pretty tasty. I'm not a vegetable fan so it was nice to find a vegetable recipe that didn't load up on fat and cheese. BTW--I cut the oil back to about 1 T. My husband and I enjoyed this so I'll make this again.

This is a fool-proof recipe and a crowd pleaser. Very easy and quick to make, one I will use repeatedly! I don't understand the negative reviews, especially concerning "grit." Perhaps they didn't clean the beans properly, use the proper oil, or combine the marinade with the beans while they were hot. A guest for dinner also thought that the marinade in this recipe would work well with other veggies, and be even tastier allowed to marinate longer.

Hmmmmmmm. I agree with Linda, I was intrigued by the like/dislike issue. I leaned more toward the dislike. It needs to be less oily & gritty. Just my taste though. Sorry Marie ;)

These were sooooo easy to make and really awesome! I made a few minor adjustments: I steamed the beans in the microwave, and used about 2tsp of butter instead ofthe 1/4 C of olive oil. To keep the olive oil flavor though, I drizzled about 1/2T over the beans. Kids ate em up, and asked for more. My husband said the only bad part was that I didn't make enough!!!!!(I made a whole pound!) Will make over and over!

I fixed these for our “Italian” themed Christmas dinner. They were a HUGE hit with everyone. I blanched the beans and mixed everything together several hrs before I was to serve dinner. Kept in the fridge then popped in the oven @ 350 for about 10-15 minutes. I think since everything had time to set and mix together, I didn’t get that “crunchy” effect other people were experiencing. Will definitely be making again!

Very good....I will decrease the amount of crumbs next time. Thought it was a little much. As another reviewer had suggested, I heated this in the oven to release the flavor of the herbs. Tasty. Served with Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. Will make again!

Sorry, no one in my family liked this recipe. The bread crumbs become soggy after a short while and we all felt there was way too much cheese in it. Probably will not make again.
