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!

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.

3/4 cup milk (preferably whole milk)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Drain and rinse beans (My mother always taught me to do this when using canned green beans, to get rid of the "can taste").
  • In 1 1/2 to 2 quart casserole dish, mix together milk and cheese soup.
  • Stir in drained beans.
  • Stir in half the french fried onions.
  • Place in preheated oven and cook 30-35 minutes (use the longer time if you like them a little thicker).

  • Return to oven for 5 more minutes.

EASY MAKE-AHEAD GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Easy Make-Ahead Green Bean Casserole image

A make-ahead green bean casserole that does not include cream of mushroom soup or french-fried onions! This is a nice break from the norm, and whenever I serve it people really enjoy it. It has a little zip and is lighter on the palate while being quite satisfying. If you're making it for more than 4 or 5 people, see my note before cooking.

CHEESY GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Cheesy Green Bean Casserole image

This is a new twist on the traditional Green Bean Casserole. Once you try this you'll never go back to the "old" way of making it! This is a requested favorite for Thanksgiving and Christmas around my house!

Provided by Austin Dawn

Categories     Vegetable

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 (14 ounce) cans green beans, cut
1 (4 ounce) can mushrooms, cut
1 (6 ounce) can of french's original French-fried onions
15 ounces original Cheese Whiz

Steps:

  • Place 3 cans of green beans and one can of sliced mushrooms in a saucepan. Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat thoroughly. Drain mixture and place back in saucepan.
  • Stir in 1 jar of Cheese Whiz until desired consistency is achieved. Cheese will be runny but it will solidify when the mixture cools.
  • Stir in 1/4 can of french fried onions and place mixture in a shallow baking dish. Put the remaining french fried onions on top of the casserole.
  • Bake in oven, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes until heated through. If you are going to prepare this dish early, wait to add the french fried onions until you are ready to reheat, as the onions tend to become gooey. Best to use the name brand French's French Fried Onions Original, as the Cheese flavor and Generic versions are not as good.
