Casserole and pinecones!

Sunday, 12/22/24

Seems more and more it is just 2 of us for meals. Today I made a modified green bean casserole in my crockpot. 

2 cans green beans

A small jar of mushrooms

1 can cream of mushroom soup

A dollop of sour cream

A splash of Worcestershire sauce

1/2 packet dried onion soup

1/2 chopped up onion (it was in the fridge)

Handful of grated sharp cheese 

Salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder to taste

This is usually how a cook - a dash of this, a pinch of that, and hope for the best! 🤣

It is in a small crockpot on low heat until dinner tonight. I’ll serve it with a ham steak, leftover Mac and cheese, and baked sweet potatoes.

I can’t believe it is almost Christmas! Where did the time go?

The green bean casserole was a hit last night. We have enough left over for another meal. 

I made the little pinecone tree for several friends this year. The Joy picture is from a long time friend; it stays out all year long. 

The ribbons on the pinecone below came off several gifts that I have gotten this year. I seem to be in a pinecone trend. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!
