Recipe
You Can Make Classic Green Bean Casserole in the Microwave
Holiday food is comforting and fulfilling, but not everyone has time or the means to make stuffing, Brussels sprouts with bacon, or butternut squash. Have no fear. Between cramming for finals and singing Christmas carols with anticipation, try taking ten minutes to make yourself a holiday staple: green bean casserole.
This recipe is quick, simple, and leaves room for your personal preferences. If you are on a health kick, trade out the classic French fried onions topping for bread crumbs. You can add a little minced onion if you are looking for a fuller flavor. Whatever you are looking for, try it out and make it your own.
