In reply to Megan. Hi Megan, it sounds like it could cook longer if it hasn't thickened enough.

Hello,
I tried making this but there is so much milk left over. From your pictures it looks like the milk is fully absorbed. Any suggestion where I went wrong?

In reply to Elizabeth. Hi Elizabeth, I'm not sure, I think the mushroom sauce would work fine, but I would recommend baking it in a dish so that the onions get/stay crispy.

Made according to recipe. Was really really good. Only added a bit of apple cider vinegar and red pepper at the end. Really a nice change from traditional. Thank you.

Hi! Thanks for this great recipe! I’m planning on using my crockpot instead since my small oven will be busy with other dishes….how could I adapt for crockpot? Thanks!

In reply to Susan. Hi Susan, yes, between the sauce on the bottom and top of the green beans, it melds together. If you'd prefer to mix it together first, that would work too.

I’m planning to make this for Thanksgiving because it sounds like it will taste WAY better than the recipes using canned stuff and I just had a question about the instructions. It says to layer sauce, beans, sauce and I was wondering why you don’t mix the beans into the sauce and then put it all in the dish together and then top with the onions. I’m guessing that it melds together as it cooks, but is there a reason you don’t mix them together beforehand? I feel like you’d get more consistent bean/sauce melding if you did, but I didn’t want to mix them and mess it up if you’ve tried it and gotten better results layering them. I’m sure that presentation-wise, it looks better as written, but I’m not overly concerned about that since no matter what I do, it’s going to look better than the canned version!

In reply to Caroline. Hi Caroline, you can assemble the green beans and mushroom sauce in the baking dish the night before. I'd keep the crispy onions separate at room temperature until you're ready to bake.

Can you assemble the night before and cook the next day? Thanks!
