Day 27: Green Bean Casserole

Still in Dallas, so I made a side dish that would compliment any meat main dish well.  It calls for French-fried onions, which are supposed to be divided and layered into the casserole.  Next time I make this, I will use only 1/4 of the onions per layer, and then put the remaining 1/2 of the French-fied onions into the pot towards the end of cooking so that they stay crunchy.  I found them a bit soggy layered into the dish.  Otherwise, this was a good side dish.  People enjoyed this addition to our main dish of pork loin.  I doubled this, and actually used two 6-oz. bags of the french fried onions for my double recipe
