I only had 1 can of water chestnuts, so I used 4 cans of beans. In the soup mixture I added 2 tsp of soy sauce. It was absolutely so tasty. The best part is that I've never been a huge fan of green bean casserole but I love the crunchiness of the water chestnut and can't rave enough about the flavors. I took the suggestion of the other reviewer and used sharp cheddar cheese. Thanks so much!

As i put this together with campbells condensed soup and three cups of grated cheese i was very sceptical as to whether the goopy mess it produced was going to do anything than stick to the walls of the crockpot. However i followed the recipe to the letter, put the lid on the pot, muttered a small prayer and let it do its thing on a high setting for about 3 1/2 hours. As soon as i took the lid off and the aroma wafted up i just knew it was going to be delicious... and i was right. I made it for part of an office ""pot luck lunch"" and 4 people requested the recipe. Excellent and easy casserole that i would have no hesitation in recommending. Oh BTW use a sharp cheddar so much better flavor.....
