This is the first recipe in the 2009 Thanksgiving dinner menu we have planned for our family here in good Ole Saint Mary’s County.
Green Bean Casserole is a truly southern tradition at our house. I have adapted this recipe to suit my family’s taste. I hope some of you will give it a try. Just maybe it will become a tradition at your house on Thanksgivings in the future.
Patti’s Southern Green Bean Casserole:
2 can (10 3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
8 cups cooked green beans
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup milk
2 cups French fried onions
6 slices bacon fried crisp and crumbled
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix soup, milk and pepper in a 2-quart casserole dish. Stir in beans, bacon and 1 cup of the fried onions. Bake for about 30 minutes. Top with the remaining 1 cup fried onions and bake about 5 more minutes, until onions are lightly browned.
I hope ya’ll give this a try and let me hear from you.

This is my recipe for my holiday Yeast Rolls.
Holiday Yeast Rolls:
7 cups. flour (save 1 cup to knead)
2 packages. quick yeast
1/2 – 3/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 sticks butter
1 cup. sour cream
1/2 to 1 cup buttermilk
Place in microwave. Heat until butter melts (should be hot but be able to stand to stick your finger in this). Mix wet to dry ingredients and knead 10-15 minutes. Put in warm place and let rise about 20 minutes. Put dough on floured board and punch down. Shape in desired shapes. Let rise again, 20 minutes or until doubled. Brush tops with melted butter. Bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees. Makes 2 dozen or more.
Hope ya’ll will give these rolls a try. Let me hear from ya’ll really soon.

This is one of the very best Chicken Casseroles I have ever eaten. I received from a friend of mine in Pennsylvania. It is from an Amish establishment that she goes to on a weekly basis.
Chicken Casserole:
8 ounces noodles, cooked
2 cups cooked chickens, cubed
2 cups chicken broth, canned will work
1 can green beans
1 can carrots
1 cup milk
1 can mushrooms
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup margarine
1/3 cup flour
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1. Melt margarine, then add flour and stir until smooth.
2. Gradually add milk and broth, then seasonings and mushrooms and vegetables.
3. Combine chicken, cooked noodles, and prepared sauce.
4. Place in an undressed 9 x 13 inch baking pan and top with Parmesan cheese.
5. Bake at 350º for 35-45 minutes, or until heated thoroughly and top is browned slightly.
