Light Three-Bean Casserole image

"This recipe came from a family reunion of mostly Mennonites. It is over 30 years old," Jane Bone shares from Cape Coral, Florida. "You can choose different beans, according to your family's tastes, but keep the pork and beans as a base. I often take a big pot of these to large gatherings or pitch-in-suppers, and everyone enjoys them."

This was a great way to use up some leftover beans and vegetables. I added some extra spices to give it a little more flavor.

This casserole was easy to make and tasted great. I especially liked the crispy breadcrumb topping.

I made this casserole last night and it was a hit! I loved the combination of beans and vegetables, and the sauce was flavorful and creamy. I will definitely be making this again.
