Another simple, and simply delicious recipe from Taste.com Australia...
So many varieties of beans are ripening as you read...
Here's a quick and easy side dish to go with almost any meal.

Ingredients:
Crusty bread, torn or cut into crouton sized pieces, about 2 cups
1 pound green or other fresh beans, trimmed
