Yummy! I never would have thought to melt parmesan on green beans. It tasted heavenly! I substituted Italian seasoning for the thyme. Will make again. Thanks for perking up my canned green beans.

Great way to make canned grean beans tastier. Never would of thought of using parmesan cheese but it sure was good. I didn't use the thyme but I did add a little more than 1 tbsp of parmesan cheese. Nice and easy. Thanks!

A real winner here! My whole family loves these beans. I've made this with canned, frozen & fresh green beans and no matter which it always tastes great. Sometimes I sub Italian seasoning for the Thyme. Thanks!!
