Preparing

You can cook your Green Giant Green Bean Casserole in your microwave or on your stove top with ease.

Microwave

Place the green bean casserole pouch (with a small slit cut into the top of the plastic) in your microwave and cook on High for 2 minutes. After 2 minutes have passed, rotate the pouch one-quarter turn and then continue cooking the green bean casserole for another 3 to 5 minutes on High. After you're through cooking, remove the very hot pouch from the microwave, cut the pouch open, and enjoy your green bean casserole in a bowl or on a plate.

Stove Top

If you want to cook your Green Giant Green Bean Casserole on your stove top, place the unbroken pouch in an uncovered 3-quart pot of boiling water for 24 minutes; be sure to turn the pouch over in the water after the first 12 minutes of cooking. After, remove the very hot pouch from the water.
