For more delicious Thanksgiving recipes, consider checking out my posts for a Perfect, Easy Thanksgiving Turkey, Candied Pecan Sweet Potato Casserole, and Cranberry Sauce. Did you make this recipe? AMAZING! Be sure to snap a photo and tag me on social, then come back here to rate the recipe! Good as the “real” thing — Now, you might be thinking there’s no way a slow cooker green bean casserole can be as good as the original recipe that you cook in. I, too, was a skeptic. But I’ve tested this twice now and it’s just as good! The beans don’t get mushy at all (so long as you go with fresh). Give it a try, I promise you’ll love it too. Simple ingredients — The ingredients in this crock pot green bean casserole are easy to find and easy to incorporate. You probably have most of the ingredients already and it’ll just take one quick trip to the store to get fresh produce and French friend onions. So easy — While you do need ot make the fresh mushroom soup mixture first from scratch, that can be started 4 hours ahead of dinner time. Plenty of time to turn your attention to all those other yummy Thanksgiving dishes. After you make the sauce for the green bean casserole recipe, you simple set it and forget it.
