Wow! This is such a nice break from the same ol' green bean casserole. The bacon pieces and cheese really make this taste great. I'm sure it will be a hit at Thanksgiving! I wasn't able to find the bacon/cheese spread but used the Kraft Old English spread...it was perfect.

The original recipe called for a jar of Kraft Bacon cheese spread. It comes in a small, 5 oz. glass jar (with a metal pry-off lid). It also comes in other flavors. Old English is the one I use when I can't find the Bacon (as a last resort Velveeta-type)and add 1 to 2 T. finely minced cooked bacon. Obviously, the bigger the chop, the less bacon there will be in 1 T. This recipe doubles or triples nicely. I have also doubled the amount of green beans without changing the other ingredients and this works well too in a pinch. Hope this helps ~Deb

I tried this just to change the regular ho-hum thanksgiving menu. It was great! I was a little worried that the cheese and bacon would give the dish a weird flavor, but they did not. My husband kept reminding me that I need to keep the recipe, because he enjoyed it so much. I will definately be making this dish again, holiday or not!

I made this recipe for part of a New Years dinner and it was well received! The cheese and extra mushrooms were the perfect touch! I would definitely make it again.

Yum! I made this for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. I might put slightly less cheese and slightly more bacon in next time.

Great twist on an old classic! My husband loved it (especially the mushrooms). I used a 5 oz jar of Kraft Old English (sharp cheddar cheese)...you can find this right by the velveeta. Yummy! This is a keeper!

FANTASTIC! This is by far the best green bean casserole I've ever tasted. Blew away my boyfriend too. Will be making this again and again. Thank you!

I am not a big fan of Green Bean Casserole but this is the best recipe I have found. I think everyone at the table had 2nds. I do think I will try adding more cheese next time.

Very good! My husband loves green bean casserole and he loved this! He said it's much better than the normal recipe. He said it tasted kind of like a bacon/cheese/onion burger.

This is a keeper. NOT the same old boring Green Bean Casserole. Took this dish to 2 Thanksgiving dinners. It was a real hit. Everyone wanted the recipe.
