CHEESY GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Cheesy Green Bean Casserole image

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!

Tips:

  • Don't overcook the greens: Overcooked greens will become mushy and lose their vibrant color. Cook them just until they are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a variety of greens: For a more complex flavor and texture, use a combination of different types of greens, such as spinach, kale, and collard greens.
  • Add some vegetables: Vegetables like onions, peppers, and mushrooms add extra flavor and nutrition to the casserole.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is a key ingredient in this casserole, so use a cheese that you love. Sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan are all good choices.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many ways to customize this casserole to your liking. Try adding different spices, herbs, or vegetables. You can also use a different type of cheese or even add some cooked meat or seafood.

Conclusion:
