Cheesy Green Bean Casserole

"This is a twist to an age old recipe. The added cheese and richer texture of the casserole are a big hit amongst family and friends and is requested at every potluck meal or big family meal by even my youngest ones. Note: Unlike the traditional recipe of ages old; I don't add milk; making for a creamier, richer casserole."

  1. Made for Spring PAC 2008. First words out of my 9 year olds mouth was mom, I hate green beans. I told him just to try them. Well he did and he ate two helpings! Automatic 5 stars LOL. I cut this recipe in half except for the cheese. I used two cans of reduced salt regular green beans, 1 can of soup and didn't add the fried onions. I used 2 cups of cheddar cheese though. I also added pepper. Everyone really enjoyed these and there were NONE left. Will be making these again.
     
  2. This is how my family makes green bean casserole! The only thing that we do different is add cheese to the bean/soup mixture. I can't imangine eating them the old way ever again.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a working mom with 3 kids (4 if you count my husband). My children range from High School, Middle School, and barely starting Elementary School...so we have a diverse interest in food styles going on right now. I work mostly nights so I rely alot on meals that can be tossed together into a crock pot, reheated in oven, or thrown into a pan for my husband or teen-ager to handle. Crazy, hectic schedules make balanced meals difficult at times but we try our best! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
