Green Bean Casserole and Steamed Chocolate Pudding
Green bean casserole is a dish enjoyed by many during the colder months of the year. It’s one of those things you come to expect at a New England dinner table, and makes the perfect side dish for a number of different proteins, or even as a standalone dish! It’s got everything you would want in a baked dish.
As a dessert dish this week, below is a recipe for a steamed chocolate pudding. This isn’t your standard plastic cup chocolate pudding; this is a proper pudding served in a rustic fashion: a tin can! It’s easy and gives a new life to something you would otherwise throw away after using.
