Do you like Green Bean Casserole?  Have you ever wondered about its origins?  This well-known dish has almost become synonomous with the winter holidays, and seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it type sidedish.  While the world was still recovering from all the impacts & effects of World War II, Dorcas Reilly, a Home Economics manager and recipe creator for the Campbell Soup Company, wanted to create something that could be put together quickly, using food staples found in most kitchens.  In 1955, she and her team came up with this combination of only five ingredients:  green beans, Cream of Mushroom (or Celery) soup, French Fried Onions, milk and soy sauce.  They originally called it Green Bean Bake.  It was in the 1960s, when the Campbell Soup Company at last put this recipe on their soup can labels, that the popularity of this dish soared, soon becoming a standard on Thanksgiving tables.  Today, Ms. Reilly is known as the "grandmother of the green bean casserole".  So raise your fork for National Green Bean Casserole Day!

 

 

  

If you drop any trackables into this event, make sure they have all been claimed or reclaimed before you leave.  We don’t want them getting lost in the muggle world!
