Directions
Guy’s Green Bean Casserole, Variation on Guy’s Food Network Thanksgiving Greenbean Casserole , I have made this twice now Both times for Thanksgiving The second time I was making it I wondered why I was doing this again, since it is quite time consuming When I tasted it I knew it was worth the extra time So much better than the traditional green bean casserole using canned beans and soup I did make several changes I added 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper to the vegetables Used panko bread crumbs, but reduced amount to 1 cup I also added some shredded parmesan to the bread crumbs for topping My family has asked that this be added to our Thanksgiving menu Not great for leftovers, I did not think it reheated well I do think it is worth the extra effort Very tasty dish , Very very good casserole No cream of whatever soup, which is great This had a nice texture and not all mushy My roux worked perfectly, not too dark I didn’t use portabella, but regular button mushrooms instead The portabella would have been much better I also added some minced garlic with the mushrooms I also used crushed Ritz crackers in place of the bread crumbs Overall very good recipe Made and Reviewed for New Kid on The Block tag – Thanks! 🙂
