Fresh Green Beans & Artichoke Hearts Casserole
This is a different take on the classic green beans casserole. For a change I added artichoke hearts and used fresh green beans instead of the canned ones. It’s still easy and simple to make but with an added flavor and finesse, I suppose. A delicious side dish during the Holidays.
