This is a very rich and delicious way to make a green bean casserole without using cream of something soup and fried onion rings! This would be a great recipe for a holiday meal, when you weren't worried about calories or fat content! Thanks for posting this yummy recipe. Made for Holiday Tag game. -
This is an awesome way to fix green beans! I loved the addition of swiss cheese, parmesan cheese, bacon and crunch from the chips! Wonderful! -
I loved, loved, loved this!! I love green beans anyway, but with this creamy sauce and the potato chips and bacon on top it was just amazing!! I will definitely be making this again, it disappeared so quickly here! -
Really delicious! My husband said these were the best green beans he'd ever eaten since they tasted nothing like green beans. Ha! I mistakenly stirred the Parmesan into the sauce with the Swiss but it was so good I'd do the same next time. Probably used more like 4 cups whole green beans. Thanks for sharing the recipe! -
What a lovely change from traditional green bean casseroles. Loved the fact that it had a homemade cheese sauce and we really liked the topping as well. Now I will have a great alternative for my meals. This really hit the spot with your Lip Smacking Beef Short Ribs. All I can say is YUM! Made for Fall PAC, October, 2012.

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend.
Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed.
A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
