Sarasota’s Re-Make of the Green Bean Casserole, This is my take on the famous Green Bean Casserole It uses fresh green beans which I love, but I still uses French Fried Onions (the famous canned ones) However I make my own sauce, vs soup and add fresh mushrooms, pancetta and a little white cheddar for a little twist So, it is classic updated It was a combination of 2 or 3 recipes, and decided this is what I like best , This is my take on the famous Green Bean Casserole It uses fresh green beans which I love, but I still uses French Fried Onions (the famous canned ones) However I make my own sauce, vs soup and add fresh mushrooms, pancetta and a little white cheddar for a little twist So, it is classic updated It was a combination of 2 or 3 recipes, and decided this is what I like best
