It seems that almost everyone has a grandmother, uncle, or other relative who makes a delicious cake or special batch of cookies every year. However, there are other dishes that grace the dining table only at the holidays. That was true for a member of our team, Jacob P., who fondly remembers Green Bean Bake. Jacob had the following to say about this veggie side dish, “I like green bean casserole because I have memories of eating it at my grandma’s house. I especially liked the crunchy French fried onion on top. It’s pretty much the only way I enjoy eating green beans.”
Jacob has been a columnist for PKP for over three years and has filled a variety of roles. He is one of our two current teen’s perspectives writers at Your Parenting Info. He also cover pets, with a focus on amphibians and reptiles, and technology.
This is a classic in many homes. If it isn’t in yours, the simplicity of assembling the dish may make it worth trying.
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup (10-3/4 oz.)
- 1 tsp. soy sauce
- 1 can French fried onions (6 oz.)
- 2 cans French style green beans (14.5 oz.), drained

- In one quart casserole dish, stir soup and soy sauce until smooth.
