The veggie casserole is probably one of the earliest dishes in the memories of family celebrations. For my family it was originally discovered by my mom out of an old magazine from the 50’s. It was rediscovered when I was looking for a casserole recipe on the label of a French’s Onion can. I decided at Thanksgiving to bring back the long forgotten tradition of making the Green Bean Casserole for our family meal. I know millions of you make this dish and also have fond memories of past family gatherings with many great dishes being served. Why don’t you share one in the comments section below the recipe! I love to hear about everyones traditions and memories.

it’s been years since my cousin (by marriage) Carol made this for Thanksgiving–and years since we’ve had Thanksgiving with her and her family (the three Ds: divorce, death, disputes) but just seeing the photo of your casserole brings back so many fond memories. I can almost taste the beans and those crispy onions on top and what a nice time we had together.
You have the same kind of memories I do. All are bitter sweet. But when it comes to the food, I end up smiling about the good ones. I am glad this recipe gave you some good memories. Have a lovely week!
This is a tradition to have on the holidays at our house. I’ve even learned to put it in the crock pot to save space in the oven. Thanks for sharing on To Grandma’s House We Go!
I love you use the crock pot. I have a recipe here for green beans in a crock pot. You are miles ahead anytime you can “not” be cooking and watching a dish as you prepare everything else. I have 4 crocks in different sizes and on holidays they are all plugged in!! Enjoy!
I’m so glad I’m not the only one that fills my kitchen with crock pots to be efficient during the holidays 🙂
This is one of my very favorite side dishes; though I used thawed frozen green beans and add in a few extra crunchy onion bits since I love them so much.
I use a lot of prepared foods to Joanne. It just takes to much out of me to cook everything from scratch these days. Enjoy your week!
A perfect classic! Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner party – and have a wonderful week.
Thank you Helen. This is one of my favorite veggie dishes for the holiday. Enjoy your week!
Love this. This has been a family treat for years. Thank you for the reminder.
Thank you Donna. This recipe has been on many family tables I am sure. But it is still a keeper! Enjoy your week!
Thanks Donna. The holidays are the perfect time to bring out these family favorites! Enjoy your week.
Love it Marilyn. TFS.
I am glad you like the casserole Clearissa! Enjoy your week.
