Swiss Green Beans

Submitted by Cherylkv

"This recipe is from my dad's cousin. It's a staple for our Thanksgiving, minus the optional items. We' make it ahead of time and have even put it in the crock pot or microwave to reheat when we're short of oven space. You do not need to grease your crock pot if you reheat in it."
