Green beans are delicious, but have you ever had them topped with chorizo, cheese and oven roasted? Let me tell you...they are absoulutly... insanely good! Oddly enough if a vegetable could be sexy then these fine green beans win. They are fancy enough for a holiday side but equally easy any day of the week. This recipe doesnt reaaly need measurements as I think it is an "add as much as you fancy" kind of dish. So go on and load 'em up. They are oven to table in 20 minutes.
Enjoy XOXOXO
