I am not a fan of the “traditional” green bean casserole made with canned green beans and a can of soup. Or mushrooms. I despise mushrooms so when I came across this recipe from Taste of the South magazine I knew I had to try it. No mushrooms. If  you do like mushrooms, you certainly could sauté some sliced mushrooms in a small amount of butter and add to the mixture. If there is a nut allergy in your family, you can certainly omit the almonds.

Now, of course, everything from scratch is more work but this really isn’t much more than making the “other” recipe. Don’t be intimidated though. You can make part of this recipe in advance. You can make the sauce and store in the fridge for up to two days. Cook the green beans and refrigerate them up to 2 days as well. Make shallots and assemble and bake before serving. This dish was a hit from the very first time I made it and it has become a holiday staple on our table.

Homemade Green Bean Casserole

Prep Time: 10 minutes

• 1 1⁄4 pounds fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 cups)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 7 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided

• 1 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1⁄2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
• 2⁄3 cup vegetable oil

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 11⁄2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
2. In a large saucepan, cook beans in boiling water until crisp-tender, approximately 3 minutes. Drain, and set aside.
