A Favorite Holiday Casserole Recipe


Hey Everyone!!
How is everyone coming along with their Christmas plans? I tend to wait till last minute. I know, it's not the best thing to do. I guess I work better under pressure...lol! Anyway I wanted to share with you today one of my favorite recipes that I always serve during the holidays. It is a simple casserole that you could actually serve at any time. It is just a tradition in my family to make a green bean casserole as well as this yummy vegetable casserole as our veggie sides. My mother found this recipe years ago and it has been a hit ever since. Again it is really simple so even if you can't cook well, this should be easy to make. Now for the recipe.....

Vegetable Casserole

Source

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4 servings
Bake Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients
• 1 can (10 3/4 oz.) Campbell's ® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
• 1/3 cup of sour cream
• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
• 1 16 oz. bag of frozen vegetable combination (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots), thawed
• 1 2.8 can french fried onions (will need 1 1/3 cup)
• 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (4 oz.)

Directions
1.) Stir the soup, sour cream, black pepper, vegetables, 2/3 cup of the onions and 1/2 cup of the cheese in a 2 quart casserole dish. Then cover.
2.) Bake at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Remove from oven and stir.
3.) Sprinkle the remaining cheese and onions on the top of the casserole. Bake for 5 minutes more or until the onions are golden.
4.) Remove from oven and Enjoy!!


Let me know if you decide to make this casserole, and what your opinion is about it. I would love to know what other people think. Do you have a favorite dish you serve during the holidays?

Free Printables To Help With Your Holiday Planning





How are you doing on your holiday shopping? If you are like me, you still have a lot more shopping to do. With so much to do, things can get pretty crazy around this time of year. Therefore, I decided to create some holiday printables to help you (and me =D) keep everything somewhat organized. Currently I am working on my holiday cards that I send to my friends and family each year. I like to mail them about two weeks before Christmas so they arrive right around Christmas day. To help keep track of my list I created this Christmas card address list. You can download your copy below.
DOWNLOAD HERE
Next, I created a Christmas gift list checklist. This way I don't forget anyone, and I can keep track of who I still need to buy a gift for. You can download a copy for yourself below.

Also, don't forget to print a copy of the Stocking Stuffer list I created as well. Here is the link to the post. 


Finally, I found some really great sites that have Christmas and Holiday planner printables as well. 
Well that is going to be it for today. I hope you found these printables helpful! Also, checkout my Pinterest Christmas Planner Printables Board for some more resources to help you organize your holiday season.

Happy Holidays,
Jenn =D
