this is my favorite. Instead of the cornflakes and butter i used french fried onions and I also add some cheddar shred to the mix.

This is obvisously a VERY heavy recipe. Don't make it if you are looking for something light. I made a few changes and I thought it was really good! I used 1lb fresh green beans, added some garlic, used 7oz of Brie and instead of corn flakes I used a box of Blue Diamond Almond Nut Thin crackers. The almond flour crackers were a really nice mix w/the casserole. I'll be making it again for sure.

This has been our family favorite for over 30 years. Melt the butter in a saucepan and add in flour, 2 tsp.salt, 1 tsp. pepper, 1 tsp. instant minced onion and 2 tsp. sugar. I use cut green beans, not the stringy french. I don't melt the Swiss cheese into the green bean mixture but layer it on top. Spread this in a 9x13 pan. For the topping I only use 1 cup of cornflake crumbs with 1/2 cup butter. Just sprinkle over the top for a light coating.

I made this for Christmas, and my only complaint is that I used fresh rather than canned greenbeans, and the sweetness didn't blend well with the rest of the ingredients. Will definitely make again....

I had higher hopes for this than it delivered. I should have known it might be on the bland side without any spice. The sour cream/cheese mixture came out almost rubbery. I may try the recipe again, but with some modifications.

Made this for dinner and got rave reviews! Even people who claim they don't like sour cream in anything loved it! I'll be making it this way again!

I was tasked with the green bean casserole for the Christmas dinner but knew we had guests who hated mushrooms etc. so I decided on this. After reading other reviews I decided on changing it a bit. I wanted to fill my 2 1/2 quart pan so I did the following: I used 3 14 oz packages of frozen beans, barely cooked (french cut next time?). I added 1/2 lb of crumbled bacon. Half a can of french fried onions. A little more cheese and sour cream. Sweated half an onion in the butter (a little more butter too). It filled the pan perfectly. The flavor was very good and the texture was perfect!

A very nice change from the traditional green bean casserole. I made this for a pre-Christmas dinner and everyone loved it. I added some bacon and used the french-fried onion rings. I also cut back on the sour cream. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
