Cheesy Green Beans and Cabbage Recipe
Ok, we love adding cheese with vegetables. Cheesy Brussels Sprouts, yup. Instant Pot Cheesy Potatoes, you got it. Now let’s add some cheese to our green beans and cabbage! One of the greatest joys the garden gives me is that it makes me explore new recipes in the kitchen! We are picking pounds of green beans and cabbage every day, so instead of making separate meals I wanted to combine them into one cheesy dish! This Cheesy Green Bean and Cabbage Casserole tastes like half traditional green bean casserole, half macaroni and cheese (but without the pasta), and 100% delicious! I hope you try it soon!
How To Make Green Beans with Cheese
Heat the oven to 400ºF and prepare a casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Bring a medium-sized pot to a boil. Add fresh green beans and cook for 4 minutes. Drain. Melt butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add cabbage, thyme and salt & pepper to taste. Cook for approximately 10 minutes, allowing cabbage to wilt, while stirring it often. Now time to layer it all in the baking dish. First add half of the green beans, and then half of the buttery cabbage. Now sprinkle one cup of shredded cheese on top. Now repeat those layers one more time. Cover with aluminum foil and cook for 30 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and cook for 10 more minutes. Then out of the oven will come this cheesy green bean casserole!
