Mashed Potato Green Bean Casserole is a delicious combination of two of my favorite Thanksgiving sides. On the bottom, a creamy layer of mashed potatoes covered by a cheesy green bean casserole.
Each one tastes incredible on its own, but even better when combined into one extraordinary side.
Best thing about the recipe?
It’s a total breeze to prepare thanks to Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes®.
Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes are made from real ingredients, fresh never frozen potatoes. You can find them in the refrigerated section of your store or learn more about them here.
No time wasted peeling potatoes. These potatoes are ready to be heated and eaten. So much prep time is saved and they are my go-to secret weapon to easily prepare a meal the whole family will enjoy.
I think you’re really going to love the way a layer of Green Bean Casserole (with cheddar cheese no less!) tastes on top of these mashed potatoes. I use fresh green beans, but you can use canned, plus a can of cream of mushroom soup, a little milk and soy sauce, and lots of French fried onions.
Trust me when I say if you’re a fan of green beans casserole and you like mashed potatoes (who doesn’t?) you are going to love this Mashed Potato Green Bean Casserole!
Type Of Green Beans To Use
I use fresh, cooked green beans that I have boiled until tender. You can use canned green beans if you prefer or frozen green beans that have been cooked according to package directions.
Add A Little Spice
To make this recipe spicy, add a pinch or two of cayenne pepper.
Make Ahead and Storage
Can be assembled ahead of time but wait to add the onion topping just before baking. Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. Reheat in a 350 degree oven to crisp the topping back up.

I love this sound and look of this dish… but when it comes to Mashed Potatoes… I’m and Old Fart… will eat anything in front of me…. Like all the ideas here…. but for me… Melted Butter and Salt and Pepper… ♥
when I make mashed potatoes I use evaporated milk instead of cream then the usual butter, salt and pepper. after reading several recipes in this posting, the next time I will use mayonnaise instead of butter!
Has anyone tried using sweet potatoes?
A favorite weeknight quick-fix is to mix corn niblets and creamed corn together for a gravy on our mashed potatoes…. lots of butter of course 🙂
I love to add sour cream & chives to my mashed potatoes
My potatoes always get LOTS of garlic and cheddar, sometimes parmesan, and bit of water or skim milk if too thick. Have been looking for recipes to use my bountiful bean harvest, so this looks like a winner
I love to add chopped scallions, salt and pepper, a little horseradish, and sour cream. Delicious and a little different. People will ask what is that great taste in the potatoes.
Sharp cheddar, chives and garlic!
I absolutely love blue cheese with my potatoes! That’s only if I’m making them just for myself though, for my family I like to add chives and sour cream.
This seems flawless, why change a thing?
I love making mashed potatoes with mushroom and spinach gravy.
