Roasted Green Beans with Mushrooms, Balsamic, and Parmesan


(Makes 4-6 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
Ingredients:
8 oz. mushrooms, sliced in 1/2 inch slices (I used brown crimini mushrooms, but any mushrooms will work)
1 lb. fresh green beans, preferably thin French style beans
1 1/2 T olive oil
1 T balsamic vinegar
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
2 T finely grated parmesan cheese

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450F/230C. Wash mushrooms and let drain (or spin dry in salad spinner, which is what I did.) While mushrooms are drying, trim ends of beans and cut beans in half so you have bite-sized pieces. (An easy way to trim them is to gather a small handful of beans, stand them up on cutting board, holding loosely so they will fall down and have ends ends aligned, then trim. Repeat with other end.) Cut mushrooms into slices 1/2 inch thick.

  1. I was told you should just wipe mushrooms with a damp towel, and should never wash them.

  2. The recipe looks delicious. Not eating meat for a couple of months, and this works for me. Thank you! :)

  3. My recipe isn't complete. How long do you cook them, and do you add the Parm before..or after roasting?
