Although we double the corn and green beans, it still comes out the same - fantastic. Take it quite often to covered dish luncheons and dinners. Always asked for the recipe.

This is the best way to serve shoepeg corn there is...we make the same recipe but use two cans of the shoepeg corn, and no beans. It's yummy for Thanksgiving.

I made this casserole using light cream of celery, light sour cream, light Ritz crackers and light cheddar. It still came out wonderful! Great alternative to the same old green bean casserole.

We just had this tonight, everyone liked it. It seems to make more like 16 servings, though. I altered the recipe only to make it a bit healthier. I used frozen cut green beans and corn. I substituted the Ritz by grinding few corn tortilla chips with an equal amount of almond meal, enough to cover the casserole in a thick layer. I omitted the butter completely. The top came out crispy, browned and just the right amount of sweet.

This is a fabulous casserole that I've made for years. My one variation is using crushed Cheez-its in place of Ritz crackers for the topping. It's killer. Thanks for posting this!
