Green Bean Casserole

The next thing I'm going to be making is a green bean casserole

Everybody loves them. You go to a covered dish supper, you're going to find the green bean casserole

I use those beautiful fresh green beans out of the garden, and I have cooked them in a little chicken stock until they're tender

and these are ready, so I'm gonna back up over here and I'm gonna drain them

Give them a good shake. And in this pot, I'm gonna put, oh gosh

probably a third of a stick of butter and let that melt. I can't tell you how much better that casserole is

if you will saute your onions first. It makes all the difference in the world

So we're gonna saute these in that third of a stick of butter

until they're kind of just translucent. We just wanna pull the flavor out of that onion

All right, we're gonna saute those onions and the mushrooms just for a few minutes

They don't need to be mushy. And I'm gonna give our beans a stir

and just make sure that they're draining. All right, that looks good

And now I'm just gonna pour that liquid out of there and pour these green beans back into the pot

When a green bean is ripe, it just does not get any better

And one day maybe we'll cook up some canned green beans, but today I've got the pleasure of cooking fresh

All right, now we're gonna throw these over in here, turn off our ice and we gonna stir in a cream of mushroom soup Now most people will top their green bean casseroles

with either a buttered cracker, bread crumbs, or onion rings. Now these little onion rings, today

we're gonna fold them in. Doesn't that look yummy? All right, now I'm gonna taste this and then see how it is

It's the best bean I've ever eaten. Now here, I'm gonna put these on my greased casserole dish

As I told you before, I love cooking individual servings, especially if you're just having two to four people

Doesn't that look delicious? Alright, so we're going to put this in a preheated 350 degree oven

And then we're going to pop it with cheese. Alright. Our casseroles look wonderful

Now I'm just gonna top these with a little cheese. And we'll give that a couple of minutes to melt

We're gonna take our casserole out because our cheese is melted. I wanna slip a little bite out of these green beans

and taste them if they're not too hot. It's hot. But it's worth every burn

It's delicious
