    These Easter green bean recipes make the perfect addition to your holiday table. From casserole to air-fried, smoked, and more, these delicious recipes run the gamut of flavors and textures.

    I don't know about you, but green beans have been a part of every major holiday in my life. Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas - all of these holidays always feature green beans in one way or another. That's why I decided to gather all of my favorite green bean recipes into one place for all of you.

    Why Green Beans are a Holiday Staple

    I think green beans are so popular for the holidays because they're so versatile. You can serve them as a simple steamed side, air fry them with other flavors, pop them in a casserole, wrap them in bacon, and so much more.

    This versatile vegetable has a delicious flavor that's mild enough to pair well with all kinds of ingredients but strong enough to ensure it's now overshadowed. That means that they can be part of almost any dish, many of which are perfect for the holiday season.

    These green bean recipes are some of my absolute favorites for any occasion from weeknight dinners to a holiday gathering. There are so many textures and flavors going on here, there will definitely be something for you.

    Try a casserole for a traditional approach or make a batch of smoked green beans. You might even love some bacon-wrapped green beans with your turkey or ham. You'll find all of that and more in the recipes below.
