I've made this! Well, a vegan equivalent with mushroom gravy I made myself. And I used frozen mixed veggies, not just green beans. Oh, and I seasoned it. And put some (vegan) cheese on it. But it was really good! Sure, it's not something I'd serve to anyone or even admit I enjoy (except anonymously on the internet, I guess), but like, it's almost a shepherd's pie situation, except with tots instead of mashed potatoes. Surprisingly good for a lazy meal, and lots of leftovers!
This sounds pretty lazy, yeah
Making gravy is lazy if you're interested in cooking. Of course, if you don't like cooking that's a different story, but I don't consider gravy a very involved dish to make.
Gravy is one of the laziest foods ever! I've made gravies while blackout drunk. I've made gravies while too high to function. It takes a little time (like 10 minutes, maximum) and some pretty constant stirring, but for the amount of tasty it adds to a dish, it's well worth it. It often feels like the gravy makes itself while I just stand there waiting for it to come together.
yo, what's your mushroom gravy recipe? I'm always looking to try and improve mine. Next time though, try fried onions. That's the original and the crunchiness does wonders for the texture.
Oh, it's a pretty straightforward, very lazy gravy! I make a roux with flour and oil, then add in broth while whisking vigorously to get rid of any clumps. Then I add a can or two of canned mushrooms and I season it with salt, pepper, soy sauce, maybe some msg, and herbs. Lots of herbs. Rosemary, sage, thyme, parsley, usually dried because that's what we have sitting around, but I bet fresh would be even better. We also have some, like, mushroom stir fry sauce (I don't exactly know what it is) that we found in an asian market, so I usually add some of that to get it more mushroomy.
And yeah, I've done fried onions on a green bean casserole. In my mind that's different than a tater tot hot dish. I do love green bean casserole though!
