Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh or frozen green beans
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 1/3 cups French fried onions
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Green Beans: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If using fresh green beans, trim and blanch them in boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes until just tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside. Frozen green beans can be used directly without blanching.
  2. Mix the Creamy Sauce: In a large bowl, combine Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup and milk. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy to create the savory sauce.
  3. Combine Beans and Sauce: Gently fold the prepared green beans into the mushroom sauce, ensuring each bean is well coated with the creamy mixture.
  4. Add the Crispy Topping: Transfer the green bean and sauce mixture into a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle a generous layer of French fried onions evenly over the top.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes until heated through and bubbly around the edges. The topping should become golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen green beans—blanch fresh ones to keep them crisp and vibrant.
  • Do not overcook the casserole; bake just until bubbly and onions turn golden for optimal texture.
  • Fold ingredients gently to prevent breaking the green beans and avoid a mushy texture.
  • For extra crunch, add additional French fried onions halfway through baking.
  • Preheat the oven to ensure even cooking and a perfectly bubbly finish.
