I have partnered with Del Monte®, Campbell’s®, and French’s® to bring you #ThisismyTwist recipe! I have been compensated for this content however all opinions and experiences are 100% my own.
Now we all know how delicious Green Bean Casserole is and if you caught my earlier post I made Bacon Cheddar Green Bean Casserole which by the way is amazing. I wanted to take my Green Bean Casserole one level higher and baked it in mini pumpkins! How adorable are these? Bacon Cheddar Green Bean Casserole in Mini Pumpkins!
Of course I started with the basics, Del Monte® Green Beans, Campbell’s® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup,and French’s® Crispy Fried Onions. How cool is that? These mini pumpkins bake up in about 30 minutes! Then you add the Green Bean Casserole top with cheese and put them back in the oven for about 5 minutes until the cheese melts on top and the French’s® Crispy Fried Onions are browned!
Here are the mini pumpkins in the oven! I wrapped the stems with foil to keep them from burning. Don’t let this intimidate you this is so simple and it will totally impress your friends and family on your holiday table!
When the pumpkins are cool enough to handle turn them over and fill with Green Bean Casserole top with cheese and French’s® French Fried Onions.
Pop them back in the oven till the cheese melts and the French’s® French Fried Onions are brown! These are so good and you can eat the flesh of the pumpkin. It adds another layer of flavor to the traditional Green Bean Casserole.
As you can see This is my Twist on presentation of the classic Green Bean Casserole! I hope you enjoy it and I hope it inspires you to find new and fun ways to present your Green Bean Casserole!
Here is the classic Green Bean Casserole recipe.
Ingredients
Method
- Stir soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, beans and 1-1/3 cups onions in 3-qt. casserole.
- Bake at 350°F, uncovered, for 25 min. or until bean mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir bean mixture. Sprinkle with remaining onions.
- Bake for 5 min. or until onions are golden brown.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Carefully slice top of pumpkin off, and clean out pulp and seeds from inside the pumpkins. Place one side of pumpkin down on baking tray sprayed with cooking spray along with tops. I covered the stem of the pumpkins with foil to keep them from getting too brown or burning. Bake for about 30 minutes or until pumpkins are tender. When cool enough to touch turn pumpkins open side up and fill with green bean casserole. Top with cheese and French’s® Crispy Fried Onions. Place back in oven until cheese is melted and onions are brown. Serve immediately.
