Story

It's not hard to see why this green bean casserole is an all time favorite kid-friendly recipe. Most kids will eat anything with cheese on or in it. However, no matter how many varieties of cheese you try to introduce your kids to, they always return to their favorite processed cheese. Not exactly a well-defined palate, is it? But, hey, the kids are eating their veggies, so whatever works! This is actually a very tasty dish, for grown-ups, too.
