Layered Green Bean Casserole Shepherd’s Pie

December 27, 2019 by Kelly 36 Comments

When I was growing up, I was one of 6 kids. To say my mom had her hands full would be an understatement. Mom was a fantastic cook and we always looked forward to her home cooked meals. One of the best times of the year was the holidays. Mom went all out for Thanksgiving and Christmas. To say we had enough food to feed an army, would be another understatement.

Every holiday, I make mom's green bean casserole. This year, I decided to try my twist on that classic recipe and created a Layered Green Bean Casserole Shepherd's Pie.

One dish we always asked for was mom’s Green Bean Casserole. She used the recipe found on the Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup can. With 6 kids, mom had to fit recipes we all liked that fit into her food budget. That is important to me as a mom as well.  Well, now that I am hosting my own holiday parties, I serve a lot of the same dishes my mom did. One of my favorites is still that Green Bean Casserole recipe.

This year, I decided to try something different and come up with a new twist on an old favorite. I am going to be using the same base ingredients from the recipe on the soup can. I am adding cranberries, mushrooms, shredded Colby-Jack cheese, bacon bits and red potatoes. My updated twist on my mom’s recipe is a play on mom’s Shepherd’s Pie recipe.

To the green bean casserole base, I add ¼ cup of cranberries, 1 cup mushrooms, and ¼ cup bacon bits. I bake the casserole for 25 minutes at 350 degrees. While the casserole is baking, I cut the red potatoes into cubes and add them to a large pot of boiling water. I cook the potatoes for 15 minutes, or until tender.

Next, I add 1 cup of sour cream, ½ cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of butter. I take the casserole out of the oven, stir the bean mixture and top it with the potatoes. That bakes that for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are starting to brown. Then I add some of the bacon bits and cheese and bake for another 10 minutes.

    Thanksgiving Dinner at Mom’s. Those were the days. Then she got smart and talked everyone into coming to my place for dinner. Green bean casserole is a must. I really like your twist on the recipe. I think instead of the can of french fried onions, I’d like to garnish the top of the mashed potatoes on your recipe with fresh onion rings. The cold winters really encourage warm, happy dinners.

    I did a French inspired spin on the green bean casserole last year. In researching it is the most popular casserole in the history of casseroles. And one that people still make exactly as the first recipe printed said to do it. I personally love your hybrid approach; it sounds delicious!
