Really good green beans-for me I think I put too much cheese on 'em cause they were a bit bitter, but really good otherwise.

Great veggies! I actually used peas, corn, and spinach rather than green beans but the other ingredients were great! This is a keeper recipe for sure!

We had these as a Thanksgiving side dish and everyone (except the three year old ) liked them. Because of allergies, I used Creamy Havarti Cheese instead of goat cheese. Thanks for a nice addition to our holiday table!

These were so great. I actually took them to an easter dinner with friends, and we were having ham and scalloped potatoes. Everyone loved them! They were very, very good. Thanks so much for the great recipe. I will be making these again - FOR SURE!!
