How to make green bean casserole
Tip: Make green bean casserole with canned, frozen (thawed) or fresh green beans. If using fresh green beans, they work best when blanched beforehand so they fully cook in the oven along with the creamy mushroom sauce.
Make it ahead of time
Complete Steps 1 and 2. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and a layer of foil for extra freezer burn protection. Freeze until ready to cook.
From there you can…
Thaw in the refrigerator the night before baking. Start with Step 3, making sure to remove the plastic wrap and foil.
