We are thankful for food, and what it means for you and me. I know that the three of us are thankful for each other and our fans, and I can't think of a better way to show this than our easy Thanksgiving casserole. It's your basic green bean casserole (which everyone eats first at potlucks, right?), plus some miso paste,which adds a kick, so to speak. I know not everyone knows what miso tastes like (you've probably had miso soup in Japanese restaurants before), but it tastes good with just about anything. So why not add it to a casserole? Mix it up! The Happy Dasgupta is added in to provide a blast of flavor in your mouth if the miso doesn't do it for you. 

Thank God for casseroles! Happy Thanksgiving from Max, Cameron and Reeth.
