COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING DINNER | DAY 7 OF 26

🥦 Classic Green Bean Casserole

There’s a reason this one shows up at almost every table across America — it’s simple, comforting, and quietly iconic. Green Bean Casserole has that humble magic that turns ordinary ingredients into a dish everyone reaches for “just one more spoonful” of.

Fun Fact: The original recipe was created in 1955 by Dorcas Reilly, a home economist working for Campbell’s Soup Company. She wanted to design a quick and budget-friendly side dish — little did she know she was about to invent a Thanksgiving legend!

Tradition Spotlight: Some families make it exactly as Dorcas wrote it, others upgrade with fresh beans, extra cheese, or homemade mushroom sauce. But one thing’s certain — the crispy fried onions on top are sacred. (No substitutions allowed!)

📖 “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” — 1 Chronicles 16:34

💭 “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough.” — Melody Beattie

🍽️ And are you team extra onions or just a sprinkle?
