Love the idea. I used a bag and a half of frozen green beans (prepared as the bag recommends). To season, I used about three TSP of smart balance butter, white pepper, a bit of cracked black pepper, salt and a few dashes of garlic powder, all to taste (gave it a slight kick, which I enjoyed). Used crushed seasoned croutons mixed with some Parmesan cheese as a topping. No oven time needed and these reheated very nicely. Will return to this simple side dish often. Thanks for sharing!

So simple, flavorful and healthy! The oil held the seasoned bread crumbs to the beans nicely. My 12 year old daughter, who won't touch anything green, ate these right out of the bowl! Great the way it is and we added a bit fresh squeezed lemon juice to add a bit more zest.

We liked them, very "Italian" spicy. Made them almost per instructions. Will make again when having mild mannered main dish.

My kids eat green beans now! (with this recipe). Yum. Had a friend over for dinner and I think he ate a whole pound of these himself! LOL .I used a little less oil the second time and tried it with both butter and EVOO the third time I made it. Delicious. A great way to watch your bountiful bean harvest dissappear.

I used frozen, whole green beans for this. I read the reviews and decided to give it a go because I was looking for something easy with Green Beans. I used less olive oil - about 1 T. and about that much butter. I can't imagine how oily it would have been with an entire 1/4 C. of EVOO. I can't say we were much impressed - it was edible but not great. The side dish did not look particularly appetizing with the bread crumbs clinging to the beans - not soggy and not sandy - just, well, boring. I won't be making this again.
