Italian Artichoke-Green Bean Casserole image

My mother and I made a few small changes to a recipe we found in a cookbook to create this comforting side dish. We increased the vegetable count and tossed in some seasonings to take the flavor up a notch. It's definitely not your average green bean casserole. -Denise Klibert, Shreveport, Louisiana
