Notes

Tips
  • If you're using fresh or frozen green beans, make sure they're cooked first! Fresh green beans should be blanched until tender and frozen green beans should be steamed according to package directions.
  • If you want a more mushroom flavor into your casserole, sauté button mushrooms and add it to your casserole.
  • Using fresh onions and frying them yourself gives your casserole a more crispy texture. Soak your onions in buttermilk and then coat with crispy crumbs, herbs, and flour. Lastly, deep-fry your onions to a golden brown crisp.
