The Creamy Ingredient For A Green Bean Casserole You Won't Forget
By Julia Mullaney
Next time you prepare your annual green bean casserole, try adding Miracle Whip for a slightly sweet, tangy flavor you never knew it needed.
Miracle Whip has a similar consistency to mayo, with a more noticeable flavor. It pairs perfectly with the other salty, savory ingredients in a green bean casserole.
Flavor-wise, Miracle Whip will add the perfect zing to your green bean casserole, but because it has a lower fat content, its texture might not hold up when it's cooked.
If you want a fattier dish, it's best to blend Miracle Whip with other ingredients like mushroom soup, which will still give the casserole a tangy flavor and maintain its texture.
You can enhance the Miracle Whip base in other ways, too. Try blending it with just a little bit of mustard or Worcestershire for a greater pop of flavor.
You can also add some hot sauce or brown sugar. Try sautéing some onions or shallots and adding them to the casserole's base for more acidity and texture.
