Full of green beans, caramelized mushrooms, and Parmesan, it makes for the perfect side dish. This cozy casserole offers a flavorful, creamy sauce and crunchy topping that will make you want seconds.   

This recipe is fairly easy to make from scratch, and you can also assemble it in the morning and then bake it off before dinner. If you can buy fresh green beans this time of year – do it! The fresh green beans are sweet, crispy, and delicious. Start this recipe by blanching the green beans. Then make an easy mushroom sauce and mix it with green beans. Transfer to an oven-proof casserole dish and finish it off with Parmesan garlic bread crumbs. Bake until the top is golden and the green beans are soft. Serve immediately and enjoy!
