This is what I knew as "green bean casserole" growing up. I was in college before I ever had the mushroom soup/fried onion version!

This looks good. May try a much smaller version for my DH and I.

I agree, this does look good, but for just husband & I, I'd probably use a smaller amount of fresh or frozen green beans, 1 can of artichoke hearts, reducing everything a bit down the line, etc., etc. (Although I have a feeling any leftovers would be good too!!)

[pdswife]

yeap, I'd have to reduce the size too. It does sound good though!
