A few years ago, I came across this delicious green bean casserole recipe. It was Italian night for our family and I had gone home to cook with my mama while my husband was at school. I was trying to think of the perfect vegetable to serve with my mom’s delicious lasagna. I decided I was in the mood for a green bean casserole. As I was looking, I came across this recipe for Italian Breadcrumb Green Beans and modified it a little.
