best green bean casserole recipe from scratch ultimate bacon cheddar cheese mushrooms cream

The quintessential American side dish for family gatherings, holidays, church socials, potlucks…the recipe clipping that virtually ever American woman has had lying somewhere at some point throughout the past gazillion decades.  Only this one is different.

This one’s the best.  Ever.

And it’s made from scratch.

If up until now you’ve just been kind of “meh” towards green bean casserole, prepare to experience a major paradigm shift in attitude.  This isn’t your Aunt Betsy’s green bean casserole.

A developed this recipe a couple of weeks ago when I had about two pounds of fresh organic green beans that I needed to use up.  I posted about it on my Daring Gourmet Facebook Page and on my readers asked me about a recipe for a green bean casserole.  So I made two dishes using up those green beans:  Southern-style Green Beans with Caramelized Onions and Bacon and this green bean casserole.  The bacon complemented the green beans so beautifully in the first dish, so why stop there, I thought?

Everything tastes better with bacon, right?

And cheese.

And cream.

Yes, let’s just combine them all.  Ultimate Green Bean Casserole.  The outcome was so fabulous that I made it again two days later for Thanksgiving.  And the proof in the pudding, so to speak, was when my brother tasted it.  My brother has hated green beans since he was old enough to say the word.  He has never relented to eating them.  Ever.  No exceptions.  But he ate this.  He ate this! Seriously, I don’t think you understand how monumental that is.  He ate it…and he liked it!

Yes.  Ultimate Green Bean Casserole.  The best.

This recipe take a little longer than the 2 minutes and 38 seconds required to open a can of condensed mushroom soup, mix it with water, toss it with green beans, dump the mixture into a casserole dish, sprinkle with French fried onions, and put it in the oven to bake (ie, the classic recipe first introduced by Campbell’s in 1955).  But this Ultimate Green Bean Casserole is still quick to make and to say that there is no comparison between the two is an understatement.  This isn’t called “ultimate” for no reason.   You’re going to love this version and it’s destined to become your new go-to recipe for green bean casserole.

Let’s get started!

Chop up the bacon, onions and garlic.  Note:  Bacon is WAY easier to dice while it’s still frozen.

Green-Bean-Casserole-prep-1

Fry the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy.  Add the onions and cook for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.

While the onions are cooking, chop the mushrooms.

Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are soft.  Transfer the bacon/mushroom mixture to a bowl and set aside.

Melt the butter in the same skillet, add the flour, and whisk until combined.  Continue whisking for another minute until the mixture has slightly deepened in color.

Whisk in the half-and-half and chicken stock and continue to whisk, letting the mixture simmer, until it has slightly thickened.

Add the blanched green beans (see recipe box for instructions on blanching).

Stir to combine.

Pour the mixture into a 9×13 inch casserole dish.

Since this is a made-from-scratch version, don’t go using nasty hydrogenated oil-packed French fried onions.  There are several good options out there.  I had two in my pantry to choose from.  I went with Lars’ Crispy Onions this time.

You can conveniently purchase Lars’ crispy onions on Amazon and the best deal is buying them in bulk.   They currently have a  3-pack and a 12-pack (a much better deal if you think you’re going to use them a lot, and they keep for a while.)

Green-Bean-Casserole-prep-14

Sprinkle all of the French fried onions evenly over the casserole.

  5. Pour the bean mixture into a 9x13 casserole dish and sprinkle the French fried onions all over the top. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
Recipe Notes

Preparing in Advance: Everything can be done in advance except for adding the crispy onions, otherwise they'll get soggy. Add those just before baking. Also, let the casserole sit for at least 30 minutes after removing it from the fridge before baking.

  1. I can tell just by reading the recipe that there is no comparison between this and the stuff made with canned mushroom soup. My sister loves green bean casserole, so I will make sure she gets this recipe.

      • Made this twice before and I love it. Question tho I have 3 Christmas’s this year plan on making it for all. Can I make the three at once today and save the other two in fridge and bake them tomorrow and Christmas day. Tia

        Reply

        • Thank, Nick! Yes, you can make them in advance but leave them unbaked and don’t add the onions until tomorrow. Pull the casseroles out of the fridge and let them sit at room temp for 20-30 minutes, add the onions and then bake. Merry Christmas!

    • This is my absolute favorite green bean casserole recipe!!! My family has ORDERED me to make it again for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year :) Thank you, Kimberly!

  2. I can not wait to make this. I can not get condensed soup in Germany and have tried making it with powdered soup, but it does not work as well. I never thought of just using a white based sauce – well a jazzed up white base sauce! Thank you.

    Reply

    • Hi Beth! Fantastic, I’m happy you’re making this! Whenever you get to it, let me know what you think. In the meantime, have a wonderful Christmas in Germany! In my opinion there just isn’t any place like Germany for enjoying the Christmas season – it’s magical. If you haven’t already been to Rothenburg ob der Tauber for the Christmas market and for the Kaethe Wohlfahrt store (talk about magical!), it’s a must! The Christmas market there isn’t one of the bigger ones, but it’s my favorite of all them because of the atmosphere. I love Rothenburg!

  3. I am dying to try this! I make a similar version and add a pinch of nutmeg, makes all the difference! I can’t wait to do this with bacon and cheese! Thank you for all your time and wonderful recipes.

    • Oh, isn’t that the truth! It’s like I’ve been saying ever since getting back from my deep South vacation: The Southerners do it best – everything with bacon or bacon grease! :) Thanks so much, Carmel Moments, and thank you for visiting!

  5. Hey there!

    Just bumped into your site and was amazed to see the recipe list.. great work :-)

    I would like to know any alternative for the below as i am a Vegge:
    1 cup half-and-half
    1 cup chicken broth

    Love,
    Nita

    Reply

    • Thank you, Nita, and welcome! You know, I really don’t know a whole lot about what kinds of vegan products are out there. I know there are vegan cheeses, and I would imagine there are probably vegan substitutes for cream as well. For the chicken broth simply substitute vegetable broth. And for the bacon, there are also vegan “bacon” products available. Good luck!

  6. I actually did a research on how to make this dish without dairy and soy because my friend who invited us over for X’mas can’t take them now due to her baby allergies. Looks like coconut milk can be the best bet to replace half-and-half. We’ll see. Daiya cheese is really the only option to substitute cheese…cheddar though…oh well.

    Reply

    • Hi Ayako! Yeah, I really don’t know a whole lot about good dairy substitutions. I don’t think I’d recommend coconut milk though – it has too strong of a flavor, the wrong kind of flavor. I’m pretty sure there are vegan “half and half” substitutes you can buy. And really most kinds of cheese will work well in this casserole. But then the problem with non-dairy cheese is that it doesn’t really melt too well. You know though, all these critiques are obviously coming from someone who eats dairy – people who are used to eating dairy free would probably think it all tastes perfectly normal and good :)

  7. I cooked Christmas dinner this year for my in-laws who are old-fashioned not only in their life style but in their diets. I knew whatever I made had to be traditional and something they were familiar with, so what’s more traditional than green bean casserole! I tried this recipe and they loved it! We all loved it!

    Reply

  8. FYI – I did make this dish with coconut milk and Daiya cheese. It was still delicious, and coconut milk did not bother anyone. However the fake cheese didn’t melt as its package says! Sad to see cheese swimming in the sauce! Still enjoyable, so thank you.

    Reply

    • Great, I’m glad you and your friends enjoyed it with those substitutions. I feel your pain about the cheese though. That’s the problem with fake cheese. Even though the package claims it melts, most of the pictures I’ve seen of vegan dishes that use fake cheese, like pizza for example, just show kind-of-sort-of melted blobs on top. Still, I think it’s awesome that you made a veganized version of this for your friends and the fact is, since fake cheese is what they’re used to, they probably didn’t even bat an eye at the swimming cheese ;)

      Reply

  9. That fact is, nobody who had the dish was used to fake cheese. My friend was recently forced to go without dairy or soy due to her baby’s allergies. Bacon was actually used! Maybe that saved it. Still everybody liked the dish…you should be proud! BTW I did give away the fake cheese to my friend after that. Next time I totally will follow your recipe, exactly.

    Reply

    • Haha! I’m totally proud of you, Ayako! Yes, make it the “right” way next time and you’ll love it! :)

      Reply

    • Hi Karen! Yes, they’re store bought – if you scroll down through the prep pictures you’ll see the ones I used (some fantastic ones imported from Europe with no junk ingredients). I make most everything from scratch, but there are some items, like with these, where they’re so good store bought, and made with clean ingredients, that I save myself the time and use them.

  11. I made this this week. I made a vegetarian version (no bacon, vegetable broth) for my daughter and the baconlicious version for the rest of the family. They loved it!! Even the carnivores liked the veggie version. Thanks so much!

    Reply

    • Wonderful! I’m happy to hear that both versions were a hit in your family. I’m still in shock that even my life-long green bean hating brother enjoyed this casserole. He said the flavor was so good that it made the green beans tolerable :) Thanks for your feedback, Robin! Best, Kimberly

  12. Made this for Easter and had to email the recipes to everyone as they LOVED it!!!! I wanted to make a Green Bean Caserole but did not want to use a soup!!!! This is now my FAV!!

    Reply

  13. This was absolutely fantastic! I’m such a big fan of green bean casserole and have been craving it, but didn’t want to settle for the boring and processed traditional recipe, and wanted to utilize the fresh green beans I just picked up from the market! I served it with a grilled ham steak, and made a glaze with 1/4 cup fresh maple syrup, tablespoon dijon mustard, and tablespoon cider vinegar. Christmas in July! Yum!!

    Reply

    • Tiffany, that sounds fantastic and your family/friends are a lucky bunch! You’ve got me seriously craving that entire meal right now :) So glad to hear the casserole was a hit and thank you for the feedback!

  14. First time making a green bean casserole, used to shudder at the thought. Coming from a Greek family, we only made fresh green beans sautéed in tomato and onion sauce. You recipe came out incredible and I used our green beans fresh from our garden. Thank you for a splendid recipe.

    Reply

    • I’m so thrilled to hear that, Elena, thank you! And how wonderful that you were able to use those magnificent fresh green beans from your garden!

      Reply

  15. This recipe was a complete success. The first time I made it, I didn’t have quite enough of this, and had a little too much of that, and it came out fantastic anyways. It was so popular that it was immediately requested again three days later. I get my green beans from an Asian market as they are generally higher quality than the Walmart variety when the finished product is done. However, they require more cleaning and much more aggressive end removal.

    So, I wound up making this in huge batches and freezing up to 4 casseroles for a “month’s worth”. This works really well as long as the mushrooms are fully cooked- I let the pre-green bean mushroom soup simmer longer than given; I leave the onion topping off until right before they go into the oven. As long as it’s fully defrosted, the cooking times are the same if not shorter. We haven’t been able to notice any decrease in quality, and this is practically a meal in and of itself.

    We tend to do batch cooking on a few days out of the month, and I was so happy that we could do it with this! My sister has always been a green bean casserole fiend, but her husband hated them. This recipe went over equally well with both! I was so excited to find this website as well; we are looking forward to trying all sorts of your other recipes.

    Thank you!

    • Laura, you’ve made my day :) I’m absolutely thrilled that it was such a success and even won over your green-bean-casserole-hating brother-in-law! I really appreciate the detailed feedback on how you went about freezing it successfully – that is fantastic to know and will be very helpful to anyone else interested in freezing it. Thank you!! And welcome to The Daring Gourmet! Best, Kimberly

  16. Just a note – your ingredient list doesn’t include the crispy fried onions. Fortunately, I had read the whole blog (how could I not when the pictures are mouth watering!!) but when I got to the store with the list, I saw no onions.. Luckily, I remembered them from your pictures!

    Reply

  17. I always buy fresh green beans but I ventured out the other day and bought frozen from Trader Joe’s. Can I use those for blanching or should I buy fresh?

    Reply

    • Hi Stacey, nothing beats fresh but frozen is a great alternative and will do the job beautifully. They’re already blanched so all you have to do is thaw and thoroughly drain and they’re ready to use. Happy cooking!

      Reply

    • Hi Liz, yes it can! Just wait until the next day to sprinkle on the French fried onions when you bake it so they’re nice and crispy.

      Reply

  19. Hi Kim,

    This looks AMAZING! I plan to make this for our work Thanksgiving potluck this Friday and then for my family Thanksgiving! Would you say this recipe is easily doubled/tripled?

    Reply

    • Thanks so much, Madalyn! Yes, it can very easily be doubled/tripled/quadrupled :) It can be assembled in advance, too, just wait to add the French fried onions until you’re ready to bake it so they’re crispy. Happy cooking!

      Reply

  20. I’m incredibly happy to find this recipe! I’m going to my dad’s for Thanksgiving and I wanted to make something special. The bacon and cheese was the touch I was looking for, along with being able to prepare it in advance, since I’m driving 2 hours to get there. I’ll let you know how it comes out. Thank you again for posting this :)

    Reply

    • That’s wonderful, Masumi! You and your family are going to love this! It’s not necessary, but if possible wait until you get to your dad’s house to sprinkle the onions on and bake it there so the onions are crispy. If that’s not possible it’s not a big deal, but the crispy onions are always ideal.

      Reply

    • Hi Tarantini, absolutely! Everything can be assembled and then baked the next day, just wait to add the French fried onions until you’re ready to bake it so they’re nice and crispy. Happy Thanksgiving!

    • Yes, you can absolutely use frozen green beans. Just thaw and drain them first (no blanching needed).

  27. I HATE green bean casserole, but my husband said he likes it. Okay, he likes green beans and the fried onions. But we don’t cook with canned soup in this house. I will be making this version tomorrow morning, cuz I am a sweet wife like that

  28. I put this casserole together this afternoon and have it ready to top with onions and bake tomorrow before my family’s Thanksgiving meal. It looks beautiful – so much prettier than the traditional version already with bright-green beans. I can’t wait!!

    • Wonderful, Pam! Have a terrific Thanksgiving and when you have a moment please let us know what you and guests thought of the casserole!

  31. This looks delicious! I am hoping to make this for thanksgiving tonight, but my uncle is on a gluten free diet. Is there a way I can not add the flour to the sauce? Or use something else instead to thicken it? Thanks!

    Reply

    • Hi Leia! Absolutely, you can use cornstarch instead of flour. It will only slightly alter the flavor (you won’t be getting the nice flavor from the butter-flour roux), but it will still taste 100% awesome. So, use 1/2 the amount of cornstarch as you would flour and skip the part where it says to whisk it in with the butter. You can still melt the butter (butter makes everything taste better) but then mix the cornstarch in with the chicken broth until dissolved and simply pour the half-and-half and chicken stock/cornstarch mix into the pan with the melted butter and then whisk to combine and thicken as it simmers. Happy Thanksgiving and let us know what you all thought of the casserole!

  32. I made this recipe exactly how you stated for Thanksgiving tonight. It was a huge success!! My family is very traditional in their cooking and everyone raved about it! My one and a half year old son was definitely the biggest fan! Thank you so much for a wonderful, fresh recipe!

  34. I made this and it was awesome. I was doubling the recipe, so I did the 2 c. half&half, and instead of 2c. broth, I did 1c. broth and 1c. white wine. It was incredible. I also made fresh fried shallots from scratch instead of prepared fried onions. It was a hit, thanks for the great recipe!

    Reply

  35. Hi Kim, we are soo excited to try this out. We don’t cook a whole lot so I was wondering if leaving the mushrooms out would change it much? (My daughter will not eat mushrooms for nothing). If so, is there something we could replace them with to still give it the taste?
    Thank you so much :)

    Reply

    • Hi April! Yes, you can simply leave them out. There really isn’t a substitution for mushrooms or the mushroom flavor, but this casserole will still taste great even without them. Happy cooking!

      Reply

  36. I made this for thanksgiving this year, and my family is not big on green bean casserole. They hate anything “soupy” or with a lot of sauce in general, so I made one recipe except put the sauce over two pounds of green beans instead of one. I was also generous with the bacon and mushrooms. It was a huge hit, and they requested it again for Christmas dinner!

    Reply

    • Sure can, Vincent! Just add the French fried onions last right before you’re ready to bake it so they don’t get soggy.

  39. I made this for Thanksgiving last year and loved it! We’re supposed to be having a pot luck at work within the next week and wanted to make this. I just got a crockpot (I’m still learning how to use a slow cooker) and was wondering if it’s possible to get it together and put in the slow cooker for the baking time? Do you know how long that would take? I’ve only used a slow cooker twice :|

    Reply

    • Hi Yolanda! That’s a great question. I’m not sure, I’ve never tried making this in a slow cooker. My guess is that it will alter the consistency. Also, in order to get the onions on top to be crispy it has to be baked in the oven – doing it in the slow cooker will make the onions very soggy.

      Reply

  40. I will be making this and am wondering if you have any advice… can it be made in advance? Can it be frozen? Thank you in advance;) Happy thanksgiving! Connie

    • Hi Connie, everything can be made in advance except for the crispy onions (otherwise they’ll get soggy). Sprinkle on the onions just before you’re ready to bake it. Happy Thanksgiving!

      Reply

        • Hi Suzy, if you’re baking two separate 9×13 casseroles side by side in the oven at the same time the total baking time is still the same (30 minutes).

  44. Hi Kimberly, I love this recipe and cannot wait to make for thanksgiving this coming week. I have seen nutmeg added to some green bean casseroles, you thoughts on this? How much and at what point? Have also added chopped water chestnuts to other gbc casseroles w nice crunch effect. Your thoughts?

    Reply

    • Hi Linda, thank you! Sure, I think a little nutmeg would be fine. A little goes a long way, so I’d just add a small pinch, like 1/8th teaspoon or slightly more. Water chestnuts won’t interfere with the flavor since they have none, they just add texture, so if you like some crunchiness in the casserole go for it! Happy Thanksgiving!

As a born and bred southerner, I love green bean casserole but now that I’m an adult and in charge of Thanksgiving I wanted to trade the canned version to a fresh version (can’t serve canned GB casserole with Barefoot Contessa sides!). I normally wouldn’t try a new recipe the day before Thanksgiving but I am soooooo glad I did!!!! This recipe is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!! Thanks so much!!!! It is now a new staple on my holiday menu. It’s literally the best recipe ever and will go GREAT with my Cajun fried turkey!

  49. My wife and followed this recipe, but after mixing everything together, we realized we accidentally bought MAPLE bacon. We’re not cooking the casserole until tomorrow right before thanksgiving dinner, so we don’t know how it will turn out or if we need to start over. Do you think it will still taste ok with maple bacon?

    Reply

    • Hi James, I think it will be perfectly fine! All the maple bacon I’ve had has been very subtle in flavor and even if a bit of maple comes through I don’t think it will hurt the dish any. Happy Thanksgiving!

    • Yes exactly, Liz. I wouldn’t recommend freezing the casserole though (a texture thing), but keep it refrigerated and then let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking and wait until the very last minute to add the onions before putting it in the oven.

  56. I have always thought green bean casserole was a disgusting forbidden dish. I was looking for a hearty side recipe to use green beans and found this. No cream of … soup… bacon, mushrooms..what’s not to love? This was AMAZING! I can’t wait to make this for my family for the holidays. It’s homey but full of flavor and fresh! Love it!

    Thank you!!

  58. Hi Kimberly

    Where did you purchase your Lars onions from. That link you have on your blog want $44.00 and I’m not paying that out rageous price for them.

    Reply

    • Hi Jackie, I don’t blame you, yikes! I just checked the link in the body of my blog post and it’s $11.79 for a 3-pack. I just updated the link in my recipe box as well which somehow was a different one. $3.93 per jar is a much better than $44.00 ;)

  59. I’ve made this recipe for the past 2 years & everyone loves it. I tweeked it. Instead of using white cheese, I use harvarte, grueyere & gouda cheese. I make my onion rings from scratch. Oh my goodness….. it’s so heavenly! This year I’ll do the same but add pancetta to the mix. Thanks for this fantastic recipe!

  61. I cant tell you all how good this is!!! I made it last year for Thanksgiving & now my family requests it for every holiday!!! I have actually made a vegetarian version of this as well & it turned out great…me personally I like it just the way it is with a little extra bacon!! Try it … you WONT be disappointed!!

  62. Love this recipe as an excellent alternative to canned soups. I tried this in a slow cooker to see if I could make the recipe feed the masses (doubled), the answer is no. Bake it in the oven. You could MORE than likely fit a doubled recipe into a 9×13 pyrex glass dish and bake. The slow cooker ruins the texture and consistency of the casserole (steam and uneven cooking). Great recipe otherwise, the bacon and white cheddar add a decadent extra layer that is otherwise missing from this traditionally canned soup casserole. Take it easy on the saute heat, I burned the bacon and onion (doing something else) in the pan and while it tasted great, it took on an unpleasant color when the liquids were added and the pan was deglazed.

    Reply

    • Hi Jonathan, I agree with you about the slow cooker. Baking it is the only way to go. So glad you enjoyed this and appreciate the feedback, thank you!

  63. Can I make this (with the onions left off until bake time) and freeze it a couple of weeks before without compromising the flavor/texture? Wondering if anyone has tried this? Thanks!

    • Hi Laura, I haven’t tried that so I’m not sure how that would impact the texture. I’ll leave this question open to anyone else who has tried freezing it prior to baking….

  65. I am anxious to make this recipe for Thanksgiving. My only concern is getting the French fried onions. Would Whole Foods have them? Are they expensive? Any ideas of how to do something with the French’s Fried Onion rings if that is all I can find! Thx

    Reply

    • Hi Barbara, any brand of crispy fried onions will do perfectly (they’re typically called “French fried onions” though not always). Are you referring the specific brand “French’s” when you ask about the onion rings? I’m not familiar with French’s making them in onion “rings” form, but if they do that’s no problem either – just break them up in your hand and sprinkle them over the casserole.

      Reply

  69. Hi Kimberly, I’m so excited that I came across this recipe. After reading all the reviews, I feel very confident about making it for Thanksgiving without a trial run. However, I do have a question. Do you use unsalted butter and low sodium chicken broth? I’m worried that by adding 3/4 teaspoon of salt plus the salt from the bacon that it would be too salty if I don’t use the unsalted butter and low sodium chicken broth. Thanks for any suggestions that you can give. I’m so glad that I came across your blog.

    Reply

    • Hi Susan, welcome! Yes, I always use unsalted butter. For the broth I use regular, not low-sodium. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! :)

  71. Hi! I am making this for TG but I am wondering will the green beans cook more in the oven so they aren’t crunchy. My family likes them soft so if they will still be crispy can I just boil them longer before blanching? Also, if I use shallots instead of onions do I use the same amount?

    Reply

    • Hi Wendy, I wouldn’t describe them as “crunchy” but they’re not squishy soft either. Yes, they do continue to cook more in the oven. If you don’t like even the tiniest bit of crunch to your beans then to play it safe go ahead and boil them a little longer. You can use shallots if you prefer. Shallots are sweeter and milder (hence commonly used raw for salads, dressings, etc) so no problem with using an equivalent amount.

      Reply

  72. Kimberly, I had a question about the blanching time. Most other green bean recipes involving blanching recommend 2 minutes. Five minutes is quite a lot longer- is there a specific texture I’m looking for? I don’t want them mushy. Thanks for any advice, I’m really looking forward to trying this Thursday!

    Reply

    • Hi Valerie, they won’t be mushy, they’ll be soft. Most people don’t want a crunchy texture in a green bean casserole but if you prefer a bit of crunch go ahead and reduce the blanching time. Happy Thanksgiving!

  74. Can’t wait to make this. Can it be made 2 days before Thanksgiving. Either putting it all together but not baking it until Thanksgiving day or can the whole thing he put together and baked two days ahead . if it can be put together and baked two days ahead should it be put in the freezer for just kept in the refrigerator. I am traveling Thanksgiving day but want to make this and I just won’t have the time to do it all on that day . would like to know what could be made ahead of time if possible

    Reply

    • Hi Sandy, I would assemble it all (without the onions), refrigerate it and then bake it on Thanksgiving, adding the onions just before you put it in the oven so they don’t get soggy. Happy Thanksgiving!

      Reply

      • Thank you so much for your prompt reply. I am so happy I could prepare it two days in advance without a problem and then bake it on Thanksgiving day . I want to make it so bad and I was afraid preparing it in advance wouldn’t work. Thanks again.

        Reply

    • Yes absolutely, Brooke! It will just be all the creamier/merrier :) What you can also do is just use half milk and half heavy whipping cream and you’ll have the same thing as half and half.

  77. Hi Kim,

    I am going to make this to bring as a side dish for tomorrow night “early thanksgiving”. If I prepare it tonight “everything but the onion topping”, will it be okay for tomorrow? Also, I bought a tin baking dish. Will that change the flavor at all?

    Reply

    • Hi Malarie! Yes, you’re are good to go, tin dish and all. Just add the onions just before you slip it into the oven. Happy Thanksgiving!

      Reply

  79. Hi Kim,
    After reading all the exceptional reviews, I am so looking forward to making this for a potluck at work on Thursday. I will be baking it at home but my travel time to work is 1 hour and probably won’t start eating for another 2 hours later. If I warm it up again in the microwave right before we eat do you think the onions will get soggy? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Happy Holidays!

    Reply

    • Hi Debra, they will get soggy if they sit that long, there’s just no avoiding that. BUT it’s still going to taste awesome. I’ve had many readers report that they’ve traveled with this to potlucks and it’s been a huge hit. Happy Thanksgiving!

  82. I am so excited to use this recipe. I’ve been asked to make a bean casserole. I have not made one before so I looked up for a good recipe. This does sound very good and I hope to have everyone to like it. And for the fact that I have eaten others, I hope mine will equal to their likings. Happy Thanksgiving

    Reply

    • Hi Kim, the only thing you can try is to bake the casserole for a while first before adding the onions to soften up the beans. Cover the casserole with tin foil (so the liquid doesn’t all evaporate while the beans are cooking) and bake for a while – test a green bean for doneness. When they beans are done sprinkle on the onions and then bake uncovered for a few more minutes until the onions are toasted.

  84. This is now a thanksgiving tradition in our home! So good that I’m making twice as much this year in hopes of leftovers!!

  85. I made this and doubled the recipe. I found using double the sauce made too much sauce for 2 lbs of green beans so I added another 3/4 lb beans to the doubled sauce recipe which seemed to work better. When whisking the sauce and waiting for it to thicken it takes about 5 minutes so be patient with the whisking part. It’s a great recipe and asked for every Thanksgiving. Thanks! I

    • Sharp white cheddar is perfectly fine, as long as you like sharp cheeses. As long as you like the flavor of the cheese, you can really use any kind you like.

  87. I have been making a similar version of this for years. I know you say this is the “best ever” but I think mine is, so does anyone who eats it! I HATE mushrooms but can stomach the soup so I do use it. But I have been adding the bacon, onions and fresh garlic. I also put some of the fried onions in too, not just on top. I use nutmeg, basil salt and pepper for that extra kick. I will never eat another boring old imple green bean casserole again.

    Reply

  88. For the last 5 or so years, I’ve been responsible for making/bringing the green bean casserole. I’ve tried several recipes over the years trying to find the “right” one. The others weren’t bad, but they were lacking something. This year I thought, maybe it’s missing bacon, cause what’s NOT better with bacon??? So after putting in bacon green bean casserole in Google, I came across your recipe and all the positive reviews gave me comfort that although it was the 1st time trying/making it (and I had no backup plan), that the result would be good, and I was right. So many people got more today when going back for seconds and commented how good it was (even my 5 year old nephew). I’m done searching green bean casserole recipes. This will be the one I make every year going forward! Thanks!

    Reply

  89. This. Was. Delicious. A total hit. I omitted the onion because I loathe onion, and I substituted parmesan cheese for the white cheddar (only because I couldn’t find white cheddar) and it was still amazing. The family demanded I bring it to Christmas dinner as well. You don’t have an equally amazing sweet potato dish recipe by chance? Lol thank you so much for posting!

  90. In 2015 I made this recipe for my family of 21 and tripled it the only difference is I added about a third can of condensed cream of mushroom soup I know that’s a faux pas, but I added it for sense memory. It was a great hit. Even people that don’t care for green beans absolutely loved it. This year I was pressed for time and did not make it. You would have thought I committed the greatest crime ever. Needless to say I will be preparing it from now on it truly is the ultimate green bean casserole! !!!!!

  91. This is a fantastic recipe. I have always ‘avoided’ making this casserole dish because of the typical canned ingredients.
    My family loved it. I have to say that I left out the cheese and added a little bit of lemon juice (for freshness) and it was still
    yum, yum, yummy!!
    I will make it again and again! Thank you!

  92. This recipe is absolutely YUMMY!!! I am glad I came across this recipe while searching for something not out of a can. This was my first time trying this recipe and I must say I was pleasantly surprised how delicious it was. Everyone at the table was asking who made the green bean casserole and wanted the recipe. This casserole will definitely be a permanent dish in our holiday dinners. Thank you for an awesome recipe.

    • Hi Connie, yes, you can use yellow instead of white, white is just a little more attractive in this. Using fresh bacon and frying it is key though because of the bacon fat it renders – that’s where so much flavor is.

  97. Thank you for this recipe, made it for thanksgiving and was a big hit. We haven’t had it since my mother was diagnosed with celiac. Not hard to change out flours from wheat to gluten free mix and used crushed chip in place of fried onions (which works out since my sister hates those onions). Turned out great and made figuring out a vegetable easy. Thanks again.

    • Hi Dana, that just comes down to personal preference. Speaking for myself, I love strong cheeses of all kinds, so I wouldn’t hesitate to use sharp. That said, not everyone at the dinner table may feel that way so you’ll need to gauge it based on your dinner guests. It will taste fabulous no matter which one you choose. Happy cooking!

  100. Hi Kimberly,
    I normally don’t comment on recipes at all but this, I just had to comment on how delicious it was!! This is probably the best green bean casserole I have had in my life. The ingredients were simply perfect for the dish and the bacon compliments the dish very well. It’s kind of hard to explain the flavor, but it was excellent! It’s pretty easy to make but it takes a little time to make. The results are tasty and well worth it. ;) I actually doubled the recipe and I even used frozen green beans, which turned out well, if you don’t have fresh ones on hand. This is probably the only way I’ll make green bean casserole from now on!
    Thank you very much :)

  103. I was never a fan of green bean casserole, but it was a holiday staple in my boyfriend’s house and I knew it was something that I would always have to make even though I wouldn’t be eating it. For Easter this past year, I decided to look for a recipe sans condensed cream of mushroom soup and stumbled upon this one.
    I’m a vegetarian so I used Quorn veggie bacon cooked in some olive oil with some smoked salt thrown in. When it was time to load up my plate I got a heaping of everything else and the smallest serving of green bean casserole you’ve ever seen. Once I tasted it I knew I would be heading back for seconds. IT WAS SO GOOD. My boyfriend loved it more than the kind his mom made (which is always such a compliment). My whole family enjoyed it. While my boyfriend was happy that I liked it, I think he was a little bummed that he had to share the leftovers with me.
    I made this again last night without onion as I didn’t have one on hand and the flavor was still amazing. I never comment on recipes, but I just had to share how much I enjoy this one!

  105. Made it. Loved it. I can’t stomach green bean casserole of the canned variety, and therefore was desperate for something edible. This was not only edible, palatable, and aesthetically pleasing, it was delicious! And the traditionalists enjoyed it more than the canned soup abomination that they thought they favored! In a word – success!

    • That’s a good question, Monica. I haven’t tried it so I can’t comment how that will impact the texture – perhaps some of our readers have tried it and can offer their insights.

    • Hi Jessica, there’s no right or wrong here, it’s strictly personal preference and it also depends on how much bacon fat the particular bacon you’re using yields. I personally like to leave at least a couple of tablespoons of bacon fat in it for flavor.

  108. I have toI am definitely going to try this. We are supposed to bring it to the in-laws house which is a 2 Hour Dr. from our home. Can this be cooked with the onions on top and served two hours later? I’m concerned the onions may get soggy even though it will be fully cooked

    Reply

    • Hi Jeff, yes, the onions will lose their crunch. If it’s an option to precook the casserole at home and then add the onions and bake it for a few minutes once you get to your in-laws house, that would be ideal. If not, this casserole is still going to be the star of the show, even if the onions lose their crunch!

  117. One of my family’s Thanksgiving traditions involves sharing what we’re thankful for at the table before we eat. This year, even though I didn’t share this with my family, I was thankful for Daringgourmet.com. Rather ambitiously, I decided To make everything from scratch this year. I googled “green bean casserole from scratch” and to my delight, I found this recipe. Over the past week I’ve made no less than three recipes from this site and all have been delicious. This green bean casserole was no different. While I was whisking the roux, my grandma called. She heard the commotion in the background and asked what I was doing, I told her I was whisking a roux for green bean casserole. “Oh honey, you don’t have to do that!” She replied. “I know grandma, but I want to” I said. There was no shortage of green bean casserole recipes using cream of mushroom soup, but I wanted to put in extra time to ensure that this meal stood out, and wasn’t just another Thanksgiving meal with the same old dry turkey, and cookie cutter casserole. Mission accomplished. Everyone who ate it, raves that it was the best green bean casserole they’d ever tasted! Putting in that extra bit of work, really made a difference, and the compliments made my day. Thank you Kimberly, I know my family is thankful for your recipes.

  123. Could I leave out the bacon or cheese? Have you heard of this making a difference? I’m not a big fan of bacon outside of breakfast ( I know I’m probably the only one) and already have a few cheesy dishes planned so I’d like a contrast.

    Reply

    • Hi Chelsea, the bacon and cheese are what really make this dish extra amazing. If you’re worried about this clashing with your other cheese-based dishes, it won’t – I wouldn’t consider this a “cheesy” dish as the cheese melts into the sauce for flavor without being remotely gooey. But yes, if you prefer you can certainly leave out the bacon and cheese.

  126. Kimberly, i was in charge of the green bean casserole last Thanksgiving and growing up with a family of cooks, I wanted to do something special. I searched and searched and finally came across yours and I hoped this would be my ticket to “wow” my family at the holiday dinner. With limited cooking experience, I took my time prepping and making your recipe (probably 2 hours just making sure I didn’t mess up). While I was cooking it, all I could think about was how it was the most beautiful dish on the planet. When I showed up to Thanksgiving, I felt so proud I had made something spectacular. As I waited for everyone to try your dish I had made, the faces and comments were not disappointing! The upside and downside is that now, three times a year, I am asked “Jennifer, you will bring that green bean casserole as your dish, right?”
    To other readers, the Lars Crispy Onions are a little more expensive, but absolutely worth it; I would never use any other kind again.
    Going into my 4th time making this. I wanted to make sure I thanked you!
    What inspired you to come up with this?

    Reply

    • You’ve made my day, Jennifer, thank you! The inspiration? I’ve never been a fan of the typical condensed cream of mushroom soup green bean casseroles and wanted to not only develop one from scratch but bump it up several flavor notches – thus the “ultimate” green bean casserole was born :) I’m so glad it’s been such a hit in your family, thank you!

With Easter around the corner, I’m always in charge of green bean casserole and tired of the same old traditional recipes, but with a room FULL of picky eaters can I change the fresh or frozen to canned?

  133. I’ve been cooking and baking for more years than most of you were even a twinkle in your Dad’s eye (LOL). I just have to say this recipe is absolutely perfect. I only substituted Asiago cheese for white cheddar (family preference) and added a tiny pinch of cayenne and red pepper flakes (again family preferences). Plus it easily converted to a Gluten-Free one…a BIG plus for me. Oh Wow! This recipe literally took me back to my Grandmother’s kitchen. Can’t thank you enough Kimberly for a wonderful memory and recipe. xxxooo
