SO HOW'D IT GO?

This was AWESOME!! I added the caramelized shallots to the casserole because I couldn't resist those crunchy canned onion things on top.  Green bean casserole is my favorite dish for Thanksgiving and it was better than ever this year.  Another home run, Veganmiss. Thanks lady.

So glad you liked it!  :)
