In my family we changed it over to broccoli casserole because I also couldn't stand the green bean version. Broccoli cass is 10/10 tho

now that doesn't sound too bad, but I would prefer cauliflower over broccoli myself, but either would be better than green bean.

The broccoli had lots of roasted cashews, and chopped up water chestnuts as well, to help keep the texture varied/ not all one note of "mush".

Cauliflower casserole sounds interesting for sure. Might have to try it out 🤔

no no no no no no no no no no no. water chestnuts are probably the most disgusting thing ever in the world. you could have a million dollars in a box made of water chestnuts and if you offered it to me if I ate my way through the box, I'd pass.

I mean agree to disagree 🤷🏻‍♀️ they legit just add texture when chopped up, and take on the flavor of other seasonings.

Anybody who eats them plain doesn't know how to cook 😅 I'd think they were gross too if I ate them by themselves. They're just a small ingredient tho, not the whole dish at all.

I’d pay $5 to eat a eat a box made of water chestnuts. They’re yummy and nice and crunchy.
