'Not your Mama's' Green Bean & Mushroom Casserole

Growing up, Farmer Elizabeth loved that traditional green bean casserole made with canned beans and canned cream of mushrooms soup. A few decades later, the recipe has been updated to a modern version with our own garden beans and organic, gourmet mushrooms. While the recipe includes carmelized onions, we don't mind if you still reach for the Durkee fried onions!

Ingredients

1# fresh or frozen green beans

8oz fresh mushrooms

2 large onions

1/2 c. chicken or veggie broth

1 shot glass of sherry

1 shot glass of heavy cream

1T. butter

Salt & Pepper to taste
