5 Bean Casserole

This recipe is courtesy of my sweet Mother in-law, Betty. My husband's family has been vacationing in Wisconsin for over 30 years at the same resort and each year they have a picnic. She makes this 5 bean salad/casserole and it is my husbands favorite. He actually loves a lot of what she cooks but she cooks like I do....add a little here, add a little there so when I actually get a written recipe, I am thrilled!

This is a great side dish to take to a potluck, cookout, or make as a side with your family dinner! Very easy to make and you can either use the oven or a crockpot! Enjoy!
