When I shared my Boxing Day table with you couple of days ago, and told you what a great success
the gathering was, I also promised some recipes. I made good with my recipe for Butter Pecan Cinnamon Rolls, and now here comes another recipe for the very popular
green beans. Now I don't want to hear any snorts of derision when I tell you
that this recipe calls for canned green beans. Frankly, I like them.
When I was a kid I would eat them straight from the can. It may seem crazy, but
how many kids do you know who snack on vegetables?
This recipe is so easy, and so good; you'd be wise to add it to your vegetable recipe repertoire. I made it the night before so all I had to do was slide it into a preheated oven the day of the party. Everyone loved it, and when children come back for seconds, you know it's a hit.

Definitely going into my recipe stash. I got 6 granbabies who would eat these up!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!!
My grandmother used to make a similar dish but I never had the recipe. Can't wait to try this one. Just seeing this photo reminded me of great memories.
ReplyDeleteMy grands would love this too. I have tried fresh green beans on them and they turned up their nose, in all fairness mommy being a surgical nurse has little time so I totally understand. I am definitely going to try this recipe out on them and I would love them too.

This looks so good. Thanks for sharing the recipe at C&C with J&J.
ReplyDeleteYour Scroodles look delicious--and so easy to make! My kids would love these. I'll have to make them!
ReplyDeleteOh, these look delicious. I love green beans cooked in this old-fashioned kind of way - I have to admit I don't like mine crisp as the trend seems to be ;)

Thanks for sharing on the What's for Dinner link up!
ReplyDeleteYou won't get any snorts of derision from me! When I was very young (in the 1950s) we had a green bean canning company in our tiny town, and as an elementary student visiting it, I got a free can of green beans. Thus started my love of canned green beans! I make something simlary to your recipe in the skillet but have not thought of baking it, plus you use more enticing ingredients. Going to give this one a try for sure.
