OH NO I thought that green bean casserole was a southern dish that you only had if someone died.LOL!
*backs away with hands in the air* Okay, okay... ;)
All I know is, my mother made it every Thanksgiving.
She did grow up in Kentucky, though.... ;)

LOL! I don't know if anyone actually knows the true origin of The Green Bean Casserole. I choose to believe that somewhere around mid-USA, one neighbor had a can of green beans. Another a can of soup, yet another those canned onion rings. They were all on the brink of starvation, and decided to pool their food. I guess we can all take comfort that it was green beans and not creamed corn. One of those could be worse.. recipes.
