By Linda Larsen, About.com

This classic side dish is updated in two ways. First, alfredo sauce is used instead of canned condensed soup, and the recipe is cooked in the crockpot. Easy!

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 4 hours,

Ingredients:

  • 28 oz. pkg. frozen cut green beans
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 cup roasted red bell pepper strips, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • 10 oz. container Alfredo cheese sauce
  • 2.5 oz. can french fried onions

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients except half of the french fried onions in a 4-6 quart slow cooker. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 3-4 hours, stirring after 1 hour. Just before serving, heat remaining french fried onions in a small skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir casserole and sprinkle with heated onions. 10 1/2 cup servings
