Tips and Tricks

Can green bean casserole be made ahead of time?

Yes. Make the casserole but instead of baking it, freeze it. Thaw in the fridge the night before and then follow the baking instructions.

Can you use fresh or frozen green beans?

Yep! Just cook them until just tender before using them in the recipe.

How to soften cream cheese in the microwave?

If you forget to let your cream cheese soften you can microwave for 20 second intervals at 50% power until soft.
