Did Jesus Ever Prepare A Green Bean Casserole?

Nobody's forcing anyone to say grace, and nobody's preventing anyone from saying grace.

I can be grateful for the things I have, without having to be grateful TO someone.
No, but his mother Mary liked to make them

and she passed the recipe down to Mary Magdelene who would fix them for Jesus every Passover, including the last one (his last one, anyway).

And Mary said to Joseph "Go forth and harvest the green pods removing the string thereof. Also dig the onions and fry them to a golden brown halo. Then thou must go to the market and purchase the soup which is condensed and gather these ingredients together and cook them atop the stove." Thus sayeth the Lord, Amen.

I don't know about green bean casserole but we always had olives at my house and they were popular in Jesus day certianly.

If jc was a jew, then his mother was probably a jewess.

In that case, mary mag would NEVER have been good enough for mama's little boy.

Let me just say the subject alone made me laugh out loud. Well played!
Where'd you get a copy of the recipe?

It's been lost for 2 thousand years!

I believe this is from the Book of Thomas:

Thomas 25

17 And a merchant came unto the dinner with sweet potatos and Jesus inquired of him, "Tell me if your sweet potatos have toasted marshmallows above all else and you too shall be welcomed into the Kingdom of God." 18 And the merchant shook his head and wept at Jesus' feet. And Jesus said, "This dish is an abomination to us. None shall be permitted to eat from this dish." And the merchant was cast out from the dinner.

I'm sure he did make a green bean casserole at some point. After all, we know the miracle of loaves and fishes was really a nifty way of saying "tuna casserole." A can of tuna, a package of Creamettes and some Cream of Mushroom soup and more than a multitude can be fed.

However, if we choose to read more into "John the Apostle he loved" then I would doubt that Jesus made a green bean casserole. I would then have to say he would have brought a flourless chocolate cake.
