    You will love this modern take on the classic! The perfect side dish to accompany your Thanksgiving Turkey along with all the fixins like Sweet Potato Casserole, Cranberry Sauce, Stuffing and Mashed Potatoes. You can see all my Thanksgiving recipes here.,Confession: I strongly dislike mushy green beans. Year after year, Ive been asked to post a healthy green bean casserole recipe, and Ive opted out because the thought of mushy green beans in canned soup with fried onions just doesnt do it for me. Im very particular about how I like my green beans. I love them roasted and cooked until tender-crisp, sauteed with a little garlic and oil, and even in a salad. But frozen or out of a can I can do without them.,I know so many of you love this popular Thanksgiving side dish. After many requests, I was inspired to give it a try only made completely from scratch. I put the dish in the oven and crossed my fingers. When it was done, I served myself a plate and liked it so much that I had two servings. This absolutely delicious green bean casserole is a keeper and would be the perfect addition to your holiday table.,Cut the green beans in half, so its easier to serve.,To make it gluten-free: Sub gluten free panko for breadcrumbs and use gluten free flour mix in place of all purpose flour.,For more flavor, try adding a little bacon or pancetta to the breadcrumb topping.,Halve the recipe to feed a family of four.,Scalloped Potato Gratin,Chicken Sausage and Herb Stuffing,Cranberry-Pineapple Sauce,Brussels Sprouts Gratin,Mashed Sweet Potatoes Brulee
