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!

SOMETHING DIFFERENT GREEN BEAN AND CORN CASSEROLE



Something Different Green Bean and Corn Casserole image

Adapted from Southern Living. This is very different from the usual green bean casseroles out there. I prefer sweet onions such as Walla Walla or Vidalia, but ordinary cooking onions are fine too. French style green beans are regular green beans that have been thinly sliced. If all you have is the regular kind, simply slice them into thin strips with a knife or use them whole.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (14 1/2 ounce) can French style green beans, rinsed and drained
1 (11 ounce) can white shoepeg corn or 1 (11 ounce) can corn, rinsed and drained
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can low-fat cream of celery soup or 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can regular cream of celery soup
2 -3 stalks celery, trimmed,washed,and finely chopped
1 small onion, chopped (approximately 1/4 to 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
1 (8 ounce) container light sour cream or 1 (8 ounce) container regular sour cream
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

Tips:

  • Use fresh green beans for the best flavor and texture. Fresh green beans are also more nutritious than canned or frozen beans.
  • If you're using canned or frozen green beans, be sure to drain and rinse them thoroughly before using. This will help to remove excess salt and preservatives.
  • Don't overcook the green beans. They should be tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Use a good quality cream of mushroom soup. This is the key ingredient in the casserole and will make a big difference in the flavor.
  • Add some extra vegetables to the casserole for a more nutritious meal. Some good options include diced carrots, celery, or onion.
