Ingredients

Scale

Green Bean Mixture

  • 26 oz frozen cut green beans, thawed
  • 10.5 oz condensed cheddar soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup dehydrated minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese

Biscuit Topping

  • 1 box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • Cheddar Bay seasoning packet (included in biscuit mix box)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole to a perfect golden brown.
  2. Mix Green Bean Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed green beans, condensed cheddar soup, 1/2 cup milk, dehydrated minced onion, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly to blend all ingredients evenly.
  3. Add Cheeses: Stir in the shredded cheddar and parmesan cheese until well incorporated into the green bean mixture.
  4. Prepare Baking Dish: Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  5. Assemble Green Bean Layer: Pour the green bean mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly to create the casserole base.
  6. Prepare Biscuit Batter: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix and shredded cheddar cheese. Set aside the seasoning packet for later use.
  7. Add Milk to Biscuit Mix: Add 2 cups milk to the biscuit mixture and stir until the batter is smooth and free of large lumps.
  8. Top the Casserole: Pour the biscuit batter evenly over the green bean mixture in the baking dish, covering it completely.
  9. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is nicely browned and cooked through.
  10. Prepare Butter Glaze: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the Cheddar Bay seasoning packet from the biscuit mix box.
  11. Glaze the Casserole: Remove the casserole from the oven and brush the butter and seasoning mixture evenly over the biscuit topping.
  12. Rest and Serve: Allow the casserole to rest for about 5 minutes to let the butter soak in. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Make sure to thaw the frozen green beans thoroughly for even cooking.
  • The biscuit mix includes a seasoning packet essential for the signature Cheddar Bay flavor.
  • If you prefer a crispier topping, bake an additional 5 minutes but watch closely to avoid burning.
  • This recipe serves well as a hearty side dish or a comforting main for a cozy meal.
