Green Bean Casserole (No Soup), Recipe from Ree Drummond, Food Network I watched her prepare this dish to take to a Church potluck and was impressed that it did not include canned soup and that it also used fresh green beans vs canned , Wow!! This is so good!! I loved it I made 1/2 of the recipe and did sub canned French Style Green Beans, but otherwise, made as written I actually had a great photo of this, as well as a salad recipe I tagged, but goofed up when transferring them to my pc, so am sorry to not be able to include the photo I cooked it in my enamel cast iron skillet and it came out perfect I loved the flavor and texture of this dish, will definitely make this again, and hopefully get another photo to add to Karen’s wonderful photos!!!, So who needs soup — easily made, a lovely rich and creamy green bean casserole, we enjoyed this as part of a Christmas feast and it was very well received by all, thaank you Nancy, lovely way to enjoy beans and such a pleasing dish to the eye as well made for PRMR tag game
