CHEESY GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
With a creamy sauce, perfectly al dente green beans, crunchy French fried onions and more in the mix, even traditionalists will have to admit this green bean casserole with cheese is delish. It's the perfect blend of old school and new school. Canned cream of mushroom soup and French fried onions ensure there's that classic creamy-crunchy texture contrast. Using frozen green beans, in place of canned, and fresh red bell pepper ensures veggies turn out crisp-tender and not at all mushy. Soy sauce is not detectable as a standalone ingredient, and it's not meant to be. Its role is to enhance the flavor of the entire dish with a spike of umami. And the cheese? That's just there to make sure it all goes down easy! So, if you've been tiptoeing around the traditional version of this dish-making it not because you love it, but because someone else does-you might find this twist is the perfect compromise!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl add green beans, fresh mushrooms, both cans of soup and milk.
- 2. Mix together well.
- 3. Fold in 2 cups of the cheese and 1 can of fried onions.
- 4. Pour into a 13x9 casserole dish.
- 5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- 6. Remove foil.
- 7. Cover top with remaining cheese and 2nd can of fried onions.
- 8. Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.
Tips:
- Use fresh green beans for the best flavor and texture. Fresh green beans are more tender and flavorful than frozen or canned green beans.
- Don't overcook the green beans. Overcooked green beans will be mushy and lose their flavor.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings. In addition to the classic crispy onion topping, you can also try topping the casserole with crushed potato chips, bread crumbs, or even crumbled bacon.
- Make sure to serve the casserole hot. This dish is best served hot out of the oven, when the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Amy's cheesy green bean casserole is a classic side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender green beans, and crispy onion topping, this casserole is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or holiday dinner.
