November 15, 2014

Green bean casserole cups are a handheld alternative to the favorite holiday dish.  The classic casserole ingredients including crunchy and crisp green beans, cream of mushroom soup, cheddar cheese and French fried onions are stuffed into uncooked biscuit dough.  The end result is fluffy buttery biscuits contrasted by the rich filling.  While this recipe was originally written to feature green bean casserole, you can certainly modify it to accommodate other fillings like creamed onion casserole or chicken and mushroom casserole.  Also, is mushrooms aren't your thing, swap out the cream of mushroom soup for cream of celery, cream of cheddar cheeseor cream of chicken soup.  Either option will be tasty.  Bite sized green bean casserole cups are a unique way to present this must-have side dish.
