ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE FROM SCRATCH
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.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place green beans into a saucepan and fill with about 1/2 inch of water. Bring to a boil and steam until beans are tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes. Drain and toss with the mushrooms. Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and parsley; cook and stir until onion is tender. Whisk in flour until blended, then mix in the lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring constantly, so that no lumps form and then stir in sour cream. Warm over medium heat until the sauce begins to bubble. Dump in the green beans and mushrooms, stirring to coat.
- Remove from the heat and toss briefly with some of the Cheddar cheese and French fried onions, saving some of each to sprinkle over the top. Spoon into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and top with the reserved onions and cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese melts, about 15 minutes.

TOTALLY ADDICTIVE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
This doesn't have any cream but it is so good that I will eat it cold. It's sweet, tangy, and includes bacon. I shamelessly asked Pat, my mother-in-law, for the recipe before we had even left the table. I wrote it down on the first piece of paper I could find...the back of an envelope. It's now tucked away in one of my personal cookbooks. The first time I made it, I did it exactly as she told me...after that though, I started playing around with it...hope you like it enough to do the same.

Steps:
- Put all the beans inside of a deep casserole dish, evenly distribute the thinly sliced onions on top and set aside.
- In a sauce or saute pan, fry the bacon -- and save the drippings from it. Don't fry the bacon in the microwave because you will lose the drippings that you will need later to make the dressing.
- Put the fried bacon on paper towels to drain. After it has become crispy, crunch the bacon into little pieces and put ontop of the bean mixture.
- Meanwhile, drain all the bacon fat from the pan except for 6 tablespoons. I do this by pouring all the bacon drippings (without scraping any bacon bits from the pan) into a heat-proof bowl and then I measure out 6 tablespoons of the fat to put back into the pan.
- Add the sugar and vinegar to the bacon drippings.
- Heat this mixture to a light boil for about 2 minutes.
- Pour this mixture over the beans in the casserole dish. You can immediately bake OR if you have the time, cover it and let it marinade overnight in the refridgerator.
- If you have let it marinade overnight, take it out of the refridgerator about 1 hour before baking so it can return to room temperature.
- Bake, uncovered at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh green beans. Fresh green beans have a snappier texture and a more vibrant flavor than canned or frozen beans.
- Don't overcook the green beans. Overcooked green beans are mushy and unpleasant. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
- Use a good quality cream of mushroom soup. The cream of mushroom soup is the base of the casserole, so it's important to use a good quality soup. Look for a soup that is made with fresh mushrooms and has a rich, creamy flavor.
- Add some extra flavor. Feel free to add some extra flavor to the casserole with your favorite seasonings. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Top the casserole withCrispy onions. The crispy onions add a nice crunchy texture and flavor to the casserole. You can buy them pre-made or make your own by frying thinly sliced onions in oil until they are golden brown.
