recipe reviews for:

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.”

Forgive me, but after all the the "fresh, scratch" comments, why are we using frozen beans? I have no problem with it but it doesn't seem to fit the hype. Having said that, I will try it as I love that casserole and I hate the canned soup stuff.

I made this for Christmas dinner and it was a major hit. I didn't put the cheese on top as I didn't have any but everyone wanted to bring the rest home..and wanted the recipe. Thanks!

I thought that this was the best green been casserole that I have ever had!! I think the people that did the other reviews must have done something wrong with the recipe because every person that ate this at Thanksgiving dinner raved!! The only thing i did different was use more cheese.

Great flavor. I really enjoyed it however if you don't like crunch green beans then cook them longer than what she states. Otherwise extremely easy and tasty recipe.

Perhaps I used too much lemon zest..... the kids asked me to go back to the basic recipe. If I make it again (not for Thanksgiving, though!) I will try more sauce, more cheese, sauting the mushrooms, and reducing the lemon zest.

Thank you for the great recipe! It was just what I was looking for and it was a BIG hit on Thanksgiving. I don't cook much, so it was lots of fun bringing something that everyone enjoyed so much. I've been instructed to bring it every year now! :)

The taste was excellent. I don't usually like green bean casserole but this was very good--a perfect balance between the beans and sauce. It didn't get mushy at all. The lemon zest was a very subtle flavor. Next time I might try to saute the mushrooms before putting them in the casserole.

I loved the idea of fresh ingredients for this one. The end result was pretty good but something lacking in flavor. I'll play with it a little. I used about twice as much cheese as it called for. Next time I think I would add a little more salt too.
