Transfer mixture to a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Spread shredded cheese over the top. In a small bowl, toss together cracker crumbs and remaining butter, sprinkle over the cheese.

Personal Notes:
The first time I made this I also made regular green bean casserole to compare the two. Consensus was this green bean casserole was better but next time I would leave the cheese and cracker crumbs out and use the French fried onions as a topper.
