I could eat green beans by the fistful. They are a great source of fiber and even have a little protein! Add our crunchy almond topping and you'll be in love.

Method
Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss green beans, mushrooms, and onion with olive oil, garlic powder, and salt. Spread onto 2 baking sheets in a single layer. Roast green beans for 25-30 minutes, until cooked through and browned.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, grind almonds and parsley until fine. Stir in breadcrumbs, lemon zest, and olive oil. Spread onto a singe layer on a small baking sheet. Bake in oven for 6-8 minutes, until browned. Keep a close eye on it, as it can burn quickly!
When vegetables are completely cooked, toss in lemon juice, and place in a serving dish. Sprinkle generously with almond topping. Enjoy!
