GREEN BEAN ALFREDO CASSEROLE
Wasn't brave enough to try this out for Thanksgiving since my family may have lynched me due to the fact that they have me make 2 casserole dishes of the traditional cream of mushroom green bean casserole every year, but I do want to try it soon.

Tips:

Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots. - **Blanch the green beans:** Blanching the green beans helps to preserve their color and crunch. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. - **Use a good quality Alfredo sauce:** The Alfredo sauce is the key to this dish, so be sure to use a good quality sauce. You can make your own Alfredo sauce or use a store-bought sauce. If you are using a store-bought sauce, be sure to choose one that is thick and creamy. - **Add some protein:** This dish can be made more hearty by adding some protein, such as cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu. - **Top with Parmesan cheese:** Parmesan cheese adds a delicious cheesy flavor to this dish. Be sure to use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor.Conclusion:
