Author Notes

I love blue cheese and this is my favorite casserole. I normally use frozen whole green beans and keep them whole. And I always use more than 3 oz of cheese. When I feel like it, I use fresh mushrooms (any kind), and sauté them instead of using canned. A fantastic addition to your Thanksgiving or Christmas table, but I serve it year round! (And if you love blue cheese as much as I do, check my Walnut and Blue Cheese Tart with Cranberries with fresh cranberries. To die for!) —Emilia Rosa
