Today I’m featuring a classic recipe that is a holiday meal favorite! My family has been wondering why this particular recipe wasn’t on the blog yet, since we’ve all gotten used to relying on this blog for our “grocery list” when we go to the store for ingredients. It’s so nice not having to carry around the paper recipe, not having to write down a list of ingredients. Now we just look it up on the phone, and we’re all set. Now my family is starting to name off a list of recipes that I need to feature, and Green Bean Casserole made the top of the list this week. This recipe is so simple to make, and it only requires four basic ingredients that combine to make a wonderful mixture topped with crunchy, flavorful, fried onions. So if you are bringing a dish to your family’s meal or you’re hosting a dinner, choose this family favorite for a guaranteed thumbs up from the bunch.
Start by greasing a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish. If you are making this dish for a large crowd you will need to double the recipe and use a bigger casserole dish. Then drain the two cans of green beans.
Then put one can of beans in the bottom of the casserole dish.
Mix the can of soup and 1/2 of an empty soup can of milk in a bowl.
Pour half of this mixture over the beans.
Now add a layer of 3/4 of the can of crispy fried onions.
Add the other can of beans, the rest of the soup mixture, and then the rest of the onions.
Now bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
With Thanksgiving one week away, I know most of you are trying to figure out your meal plan for the big day. I’ve got a simple appetizer that will keep your guests satisfied while you are preparing the feast. My family always serves these little morsels out of a Crock-Pot to keep them warm during the party. And if you don’t finish them all, which is highly unlikely, they are equally delicious left over!
First you need to open 1 (8 oz.) package of crescent rolls and separate a square of two rolls. Then smooth out the triangular perforations.
Now cut the square into 8 strips. Repeat this process with all of the dough from the crescent roll tube.
Once you have all of the strips cut, you can wrap each Hillshire Farms Beef Little Smokies Cocktail Link with the dough.
There is about 32 little smokies in a package and one crescent roll tube should make 32 strips of dough. So now place the 32 wrapped smokies onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake them in a 375 degree oven for 9-12 minutes or until golden brown.
I always serves the mini pigs in a blanket from a Crock-Pot so that they stay warm during the party. So all you have to do is get out your Crock-Pot and layer them between parchment paper that you have cut into circles. Start with a single layer of Pigs in a Blanket followed by a circular layer of parchment paper and keep layering until they are all in the Crock-Pot.
Now set your Crock-Pot on low and enjoy your Thanksgiving Day feast.
Today I’m featuring an old-fashioned side dish that will take you down memory lane and become an instant favorite at your holiday table. It’s quick and easy to make, because it features just a handful of ingredients. My family always has a cream style corn recipe on our holiday table whether it is Creamed Corn Cornbread or Scalloped Corn. They are both great choices and everyone has their favorite. This recipe is simple and topped with the richness of hand buttered saltines. So if you need a quick side dish for Thanksgiving, look no further than this Scalloped Corn recipe.
For this recipe you will need 2 (14.75) ounce cans of cream style corn, 1 cup of milk, 1 well-beaten egg, 35 crushed saltine crackers, 2 tablespoons dried minced onion, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, and 20 crushed and buttered saltine crackers for the top.
Mix two cans of cream style corn with the milk and then stir in one well beaten egg.
Next crush 35 saltines in a bag into fine pieces.
Pour the crackers into the corn.
Now add 2 tablespoons of dried minced onion, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper to the corn mixture.
Butter 20 saltine crackers.
Crush the saltines in a bag.
Pour the corn mixture in a greased 8 inch baking dish and top with the buttered crackers.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Now you have the perfect old-fashioned side dish to feed to your holiday guests.
