Ingredients

  • 10.5 oz condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ½ cup milk
  • dash black pepper
  • 4 cups green beans - cooked and cut - see notes (or 2 cans, 14.5 oz each, drained)
  • 1 ⅓ cups Crispy Fried Onions divided

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Mix the soup, milk, pepper, green beans, and ⅔ cup fried onions in a 1 ½-quart casserole dish.
  • Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until hot and bubbling.
  • Remove from the oven and stir.
  • Then sprinkle the remaining ⅔ cup of fried onions on top.
  • Bake for 5 more minutes or until onions are golden.

Note on Preparing Fresh Green Beans:

  • For the best texture in your casserole, trim the ends of your fresh green beans and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Blanch them in boiling water for 3–4 minutes until they’re bright green and just tender, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. This ensures they stay crisp-tender in the casserole and don’t become mushy during baking. Do this while the oven is preheating - before mixing with the sauce.
