If you have your green card in hand, you don't need a re-entry permit unless you're planning on staying out of the US for an extended amount of time.

ETA: An extended amount of time is more than 12 months.

With the Green Card, you do not need Advanced Parole (reentry permit). If you have a Green Card, you have already had the Biometrics appointment. There is only 1 biometrics appointment. USCIS will not be calling you again for another biometrics appointment before you travel.

The photo that you took at your Biometrics appointment is what appears on your Green Card. So if you have the Green card, you are ready to travel!
