Oven Fried Green Beans Recipe
What is a super simple way to get my kids to eat vegetables? CHEESE! If you've followed me long enough you know I'm all about that cheese!
From Bacon Cheeseburger Cauliflower Casserole, to Cheesy Cauli Tots, Cheesy Zucchini Bites, to Cheesy Antipasto Stuffed Chicken, it's always going to win my family members over with cheese in it!
These wouldn't be their typical choice for dinner, after all, they are children and would prefer french fries! But I had to try. I even told them they were a new kind of french fry!
They didn't buy that, but they did all enjoy this simple recipe of oven fried green beans and my youngest even asked for seconds. So to me that's winning, especially with picky eaters!
Crispy Green Bean Fries ?
I can't tell you they crisp up just like a french fry because obviously they have no flour and are baked, not fried, but they are finger food material and it works for us as a simple and delicious side dish for dinner.
This recipe is adapted from my Oven Fried Parmesan Broccoli & Cauliflower florets which my kids love, even the cauliflower!
I figure you can serve most any veggie with some cheese and it might win my kids over, maybe yours too!
Easy, simple, serving up a healthy veggie in minutes.........my kind of simple side dish, hopefully yours too!

What to Serve with Crispy Green Beans
Can you make them in the air fryer?
Yes, you can make fried green beans in the air fryer!
Just set the air fryer to 400°F. Then, place the green beans in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook the green beans for about 5 minutes, flip them over and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
How do you store fried green beans?
If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days, but for best results, eat them the same day you make them.
