Slow Cooker Green Bean Casserole with Bacon
Whether your family is in the green bean or the broccoli camp when it comes to Thanksgiving casseroles, the odds are at least one (or maybe even both) is on your table.

You are probably tempted to save a little time and pick up a bag of frozen dinner rolls the next time you go grocery shopping or to cross the rolls off the list since the table is already looking a little overcrowded. Think again. First things first, there is always room for more carbohydrates on the Thanksgiving table (and on all tables). What do you plan on using to sop up all that extra gravy? Secondly, there is no disputing that homemade bread is the best bread. Hands. Down. Continue reading “Homemade Garlic & Parmesan Dinner Rolls”
