Chef’s tips

Save time

I am all about saving time in the kitchen! If you are on a time crunch, buy pre washed and cut green beans and grated parmesan cheese. This will save time since you won’t have to wash and cut the green beans, which can take quite a while.

Make it ahead of time

You can prepare these prosciutto wrapped green beans ahead of time and cook them when you are ready. Wrap the green beans with the parmesan cheese, rosemary, and prosciutto. Place them on a plate, then cover them with plastic wrap and place them in the fridge.

When you are ready to bake the green bean bundles, place them on a baking sheet and cook them for their normal cooking time.
