I posted about my ERROR steak before, and mub asked me for the recipe for my (success) Green Bean Casserole. So here it is!

You Will Need:

2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup onion, diced (but we were out of onions, so I used a bunch of onion powder)
3 cans of green beans
1-2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup of crumbled butter crackers (aka Ritz crackers)
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 cup sour cream

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Melt 2 Tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth and cook 1 minute.

Stir in salt, sugar, onion, and sour cream. Add beans and stir to coat.

Transfer to a 2 1/2 quart casserole.

Stir 1 Tbsp melted butter into the cracker crumbs.

Spread cheese over the top of the casserole and top with crumbs. Bake 30 minutes.

Sebastian makes the green bean casserole on the back of the fried onions can every year for Thanksgiving, and I admit that I love it, but I think the addition of Ritz crackers is genius!

I LOVE green bean casserole! When I was a baby, I loved green beans so much that they called me bean. I called my dad “daddy green bean.” Well, you get the picture! My love affair with anything green bean is still strong. Thanks so much for the recipe!

Also, thanks for the 7 things tag. I will be trying to put up a post sometime soon!

Mmmm.

BUT

I’m really trying hard not to eat things like green bean casserole.

Blogs like this make it extremely difficult.

mub, how’d it go?

Sarah, I LOVE those fried onions in a can… I really REALLY like the casserole with those on top, but this recipe is good too.

Meg, that’s so cute about your nicknames. Green beans are so great… I used to bring fresh raw green beans in my lunches in elementary school.

Buffy, why try not to eat these things? They are yum!
