ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE FROM SCRATCH



Absolutely Delicious Green Bean Casserole from Scratch image

No cans here! Fresh mushrooms, onion, and herbs with frozen green beans, sour cream, and cheddar cheese make this a delightfully tasty twist on the traditional casserole. I developed this recipe, longing for a 'no cans' version of the classic dish. I made this one year for my husband's family at Christmas time, and now they ask for it every year! My husband asks me to make it for dinner throughout the year.

CHEESY GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Cheesy Green Bean Casserole image

I hesitated to even post this recipe, since there are so many green bean casseroles on here. And yes, this one uses soup and canned French fried onions. The difference is, this recipe uses cheddar cheese soup, not cream of mushroom. I first ate it in 1973 at the home of a (then) middle-aged couple who invited my husband and me to dinner shortly after we were married.

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:

  • Use fresh green beans. Fresh green beans have a better flavor and texture than canned or frozen beans.
  • Trim the green beans before cooking. Trim the ends of the green beans and remove any blemishes.
  • Cook the green beans until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked green beans will be mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well.
  • Don't overcook the casserole. The casserole should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly, but it should not be overcooked, or the green beans will become mushy.
  • Serve the casserole immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is made.

Conclusion:

Green bean casserole is a classic side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious green bean casserole that everyone will love.
