Genius! I never thought of putting green bean casserole in the crockpot before! I never have enough room in the oven for everything. This is perfect!
Slow cooking is definitely the way to go with this yummy casserole! It’s a great way to free up oven space when making holiday meals. Love it!
This was a really great tasting recipe and I really appreciated freeing up my oven!
Do you prefer cut or french style canned green beans?
Either will work, I prefer the cut because they tend to hold up better. Hope you like it!:)
Can this recipe be doubled?
Absolutely!
love green bean casserole first time going in the crock pot…think it will be great and everything tastes better ahead of time and on Holidays saves time for the things that need you last minute..and the oven is already full..Enjoy your Thanksgiving..
