I find French-cut green beans work best. It seems to hold together better.

I have always substituted cheddar cheese soup for the cream of mushroom soup when making this recipe. my kids have always preferred it, and my grand kids now love it too,

 Uncle Gar (Florida) says:
I make a variation using canned aspargus, canned mushrooms, Chick in a Biscuit crackers (crushed) and cream of chicken soup. Layer the ingredients in a bread pan for a small casserole type side dish. Bake for 30 minutes. Excellent, and a change of pace.

I make green bean casserole every year, and instead of baking it in the oven, I make mine in a crock pot, and by the time all the other food is ready, so will the green bean casserole :) Plus it keeps it warm while you eat!

Kasey -- the slow cooker method is exactly the ticket for me this Christmas! Gonna use fresh blanched green beans in it as well. Thanks to all for a great ideas on COOKS.COM!

I make this green bean casserole three times a year -- Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my husband's birthday (he's wild about it!). I use the old Campbell's recipe which calls for one teaspoon of soy sauce -- it really does make a difference and has always set my casserole above other casseroles that did not include the soy sauce.

I don't add the milk, you really don't need it. This is my favorite Thanksgiving dish! Look so forward to it every year!

 Andrea (Georgia) says:
Has anyone tried heavy cream and sour cream with green bean casserole? Better than cream of mushroom soup and healthier too.

 JHUFF (Texas) says:
I like to add sour cherry candies to the beans before baking it. Looks more festive with the red and green....just kidding. Love it the original way, the classic. Happy Holidays!

I make a half recipe since it's just me and my husband. But I add granulated garlic and cayenne pepper along with course ground black pepper. When I mix the soup and milk together I always add a dash or two of light soy sauce. Sometimes I get crazy and make my own bechamel and add fresh white sauteed mushrooms and/or reconstituted dried mushrooms - it is so much better because the homemade sauce tastes so much better. I swear Campbell's has recently changed their mushroom soup recipe, and not for the better.

Add a splash of Worcestershire sauce like grandma did.

This casserole has such diversity it off the map on what you can do... Just use the basic information and then play... Um um good. A must for Thanksgiving...

I make regular meat balls, roast and add to casserole, bake 30 minutes. Sprinkle aged cheddar lightly and bake 10 more minutes.
