This particular recipe is for a family of at least four, but can be easily doubled for bigger groups. String bean casserole is one of those must have sides every year at Thanksgiving. For those of us that love to take everything up a notch and add our own personal stamp to every recipe like me, you'll find this recipe goes a little further, but the flavor is great!

Ingredients:

• 3 cans of string beans drained, or if you prefer
• 3-4 cups of cooked fresh string beans

• 1 half of a green pepper sliced into thin strips
• 1 half of a red bell pepper sliced into thin strips
• 1 half of a yellow or orange bell pepper sliced into thin strips
• (the bell peppers give this delicious dish a wonderful zip of flavor and color)
