    slow cooker green bean casserole

    No room in the oven while prepping your holiday feast!?!

    Not to worry…you can make your grandma’s favorite green bean casserole in the slow cooker!

    Get this going about 2 to 2 1/2 hours before your big feast and you’ll have some more wiggle room to work with in the oven.

    Toss the green beans and sauce in the slow cooker – then add the French’s fried onions in at the end and booooom!
