I loved this! I love this as a great alternative to that famous green bean casserole we all probably know. I am going to make this for Thanksgiving, too. Thanks for sharing! -
DH and I really enjoyed this. I cut the recipe in half and used can green beans (that is what I had and I will try this with fresh) and otherwise followed the instructions. Very nice not to have to use can soup. Thank you for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2012.

I am...I am not sure how to complete that sentence anymore. Six months ago I would have written that I am a single woman in her thirties who has a passion for teaching, scrapbooking, traveling, reading, writing, and cooking/baking. A lot has changed in my life. I am now a newly married thirty-something-year-old who seems to have a lot more time for cooking and baking. I have moved about 2000 kilometers to where my husband and I are making our home. In order to do this, I had to resign from my teaching position that I had held for over six years. I now find myself substitute teaching on some days, staying home and scrapbooking, reading, writing, blogging, taking pictures, and yes, cooking and baking a whole lot more than I ever have before.
