CREAMY GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE



Creamy Green Bean Casserole image

This is my own version of Green Bean Casserole, It uses a different ingredient, but I think it's the best. I hope You will like it too :) This recipe is what I make for holidays, but you can certainly scale it down to suit the amount you want to make. It does make less than it seems though, especially if you use the French style green beans (not to mention how good left overs are). Exact measurements aren't really neccesary though so don't be afraid to make less or more. For one can beans I'd use 2oz cream cheese and 1/3 can of cream of chicken.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 (11 ounce) cans French style green beans (the ones sliced the long way)
4 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temp

1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

1 pinch garlic powder

Steps:

  • Heat over to 350°F and grease a 9x9 or whatever sized dish you want to use. I don't suggest a 9X13 but anything smaller will do.

  • Add 1/2 cup of the french friend onions.
  • Pour into greased pan and cover loosely with foil. Bake for about 25 minutes Then remove cover and stir.
  • Add remaining french fried onions to the top and bake uncovered for another 20 to 30 minutes Until it's bubbly and looks done.

GREEN BEANS WITH CHEESE AND BACON



Green Beans with Cheese and Bacon image

I found this among some recipes my husband's aunt sent me. I tried it once, and it became a family favorite immediately. I save it and use it in the summer when beans are freshest. Then we always have something to look forward to each summer. I often double this recipe just to have enough for my children to have leftovers! You can prepare this ahead of time, but make sure that the casserole is at room temperature before baking. I often use a mixture of both green beans and wax beans in the casserole.
