Green Bean And Celery Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add 2 quarts water and a generous pinch of salt to a Dutch oven and bring to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath by combining 4 cups ice and 4 cups water in a large bowl. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook just until crisp-tender and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the beans and immediately plunge them into the ice bath. When cool, drain again and set aside.
• Melt the butter in the Dutch oven over medium heat. When the bubbles have subsided, whisk in the flour until it is free of lumps. Cook until the mixture is slightly golden and smells of toasted nuts, about 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the milk and cream, whisking constantly. Add the thyme and continue whisking until the mixture is smooth. Cook, whisking occasionally, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms, spreading them in an even layer; do not season or stir the mushrooms. Cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir to flip the mushrooms, then continue cooking until browned all over, another 3 minutes. Add the brandy, if using, and cook until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Season with pepper and then scrape the mushrooms into the pot with the cream sauce.
• Add the green beans to the mushroom cream sauce. Fold in 1 cup of the fried onions. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart baking dish.
• Bake until the casserole is hot and bubbling around the edges, 30 to 35 minutes. Top with the butter crackers and the remaining 1/2 cup fried onions. Bake for another 5 minutes, just to brown the topping.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine green beans, corn, soup, Cheddar cheese, sour cream, celery, and onion in a bowl. Mix thoroughly. Pour vegetable mixture into a 8-inch square baking dish and spread evenly.
• Combine crackers and melted butter in a small bowl. Mix well, coating crackers with the butter. Pour over the vegetable mixture in the baking dish and spread evenly without stirring. Sprinkle almonds on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 1 1/2-quart casserole or glass baking dish, mix green beans, soup and milk.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes, topping with onions during last 5 minutes of baking, until bubbly.
• ALTERNATE METHOD: Heat oven to 325°F. In 1 1/2-quart casserole or glass baking dish, mix green beans, soup and milk. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, topping with onions during last 5 minutes of baking, until bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish.
• In a bowl, stir together the cream of celery soup, sour cream, Cheddar cheese, onion, and salt until well combined. Mix the green beans and corn together in the prepared dish, and spread the soup mixture over the vegetables. Place the crushed crackers in a bowl and stir in the butter. Spread the crumbs over the casserole.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling and the crumb topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Place beans and celery in a saucepan and cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain. Add the pimiento, sunflower kernels, butter, salt and pepper; toss to coat. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Steam the beans until crispy, not quite done-- set aside.
• Saute celery in butter until softened-- set aside.

• Stir and cook over medium heat until smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beans and celery and mix well.
• Pour mixture into 2, 4 quart casserole dishes.
• Bake at 350 degrees 25 minutes or until sauce bubbles.

Steps:

• Whisk 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon dijon mustard, a pinch of salt and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl. Add 1 minced shallot, 2 tablespoons capers, a handful each of chopped parsley and celery leaves, and a pinch of pepper. Boil 3/4 pound halved green beans until crisp-tender, 4 minutes; drain and add to the dressing along with a few thinly sliced celery ribs.
