Emma Parker's Holiday Vegetable Bake Recipe
Every American family has Thanksgiving traditions which vary depending what part of the country they are from. My Charlotte-born-and-raised friend, Emma Parker, looks forward to “Parker”house rolls at her family Thanksgiving gathering, as well as a luscious vegetable casserole that takes the place of the ubiquitous green bean casserole. Emma Parker’s Holiday Vegetable Bake has green beans, corn, onions, and celery in a creamy sauce with cheese and a crunchy topping. It’s addictive, and goes well with all of the other traditional Thanksgiving dishes. A bonus is that It takes only a few minutes to mix it up.
You’ll want to try this dish; you may want to double it if you’re having a big crowd on Thanksgiving (no need to double the topping; there is plenty). You can also substitute frozen corn and beans, if it’s more convenient. There won’t be leftovers, and it may just become a new Thanksgiving tradition for your own family.
