A classic. My mom always added a 5oz. can of water chestnuts (drained) and a generous sprinkling of dried oregano. I used the roasted garlic mushroom soup last time and that was very good in it. It's definitely worth springing for Campbell's soup, I think; get it on sale during Thanksgiving week and stock up! ;)

This is one of the classic Thanksgiving dishes that I am asked to bring every year. Trouble is, it never gets eaten (not that I am a bad cook. I just haven't found THE GB Casserole) WELL, I think this one it is. I used evaporated milk instead of reg. milk... everything is good with evap. milk (and bacon, but that is another story). Great taste and easy to make. And since it isn't a very large amount, no leftovers due to massive amounts! Thanks for the recipe! Jennifer

Thanx, mandabears, for posting this classic holiday recipe. Your tips regarding frozen green bean substitutions are helpful. I like to use @ 4 cups frozen haricot verts (French Green Beans- buy at Trader Joe's) and dress mine up with the addition of chopped fresh parsley, minced fresh lemon zest, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before baking.

I've been making this recipe for years! It doesn't have to be made just for the holidays, sometimes I make it as a side dish during the week because it's simple, quick to toss together and everyone loves it. I think the addition of soy sauce really adds to the flavor of this. It's the only way I make this! The only thing I do different is use canned beans instead of frozen and reduce milk to 1/3 cup, but only because I use less beans than this recipe calls for (Because I use canned). Everything else is the same. Thank you for sharing this. If I misplace my copy of this, I too, will alway's know where to find it!

I substituted golden mushroom soup for the cream of mushroom soup, just for a change, & omitted the soy sauce. I used canned french cut green beans this time but, of course, frozen would be fine too. I've made this before but it was a definite success at Thanksgiving this year, probably because of the soup.
