4 cups cut green beans (from 2 cans, 1 lb fresh, or one 16 oz frozen package)
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 1/3 cups crispy french fried onions, divided

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, and ground black pepper. Stir until smooth.
Step 3: Gently fold the cut green beans into the soup mixture, ensuring they are well coated.
Step 4: Transfer the green bean mixture evenly into a baking dish.
Step 5: Sprinkle 1 cup of the crispy french fried onions evenly over the top.
Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until the casserole is bubbly and the onions are golden brown.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add a teaspoon of garlic powder to the soup mixture before baking.
Swap the soy sauce with Worcestershire sauce for a slightly different savory depth.
Use fresh green beans for a crisp texture, steaming them lightly before mixing for best results.
Reserve a handful of fried onions to sprinkle on top right before serving to keep them extra crispy.

Storage

Store leftover casserole in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, cover with foil and warm in a 350°F oven until heated through, about 15-20 minutes. Adding fresh fried onions on top after reheating will restore some crunch.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use fresh green beans instead of canned or frozen?

Yes, fresh green beans work beautifully. Trim and cut them, then steam or blanch briefly before mixing to ensure they cook fully and stay tender in the casserole.

Is it possible to make this casserole ahead of time?

Absolutely. Prepare the casserole up to the baking step, cover it, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Bake just before serving, adding extra fried onions at the end for crispness.

Primary Ingredients

1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp soy sauce
4 cups cut green beans (from 2 cans, 1 lb fresh, or one 16 oz frozen package)
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 1/3 cups crispy french fried onions, divided

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set your oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when your casserole mixture is prepared.
Mix soup base: In a large bowl, combine the condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, and ground black pepper. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
Add green beans: Fold the cut green beans into the soup mixture gently, making sure all green beans are evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Prepare baking dish: Transfer the green bean mixture into a baking dish and spread it out evenly to create a uniform layer for baking.
Top with fried onions: Sprinkle the crispy French fried onions evenly over the top of the casserole to add a delicious crunchy topping.
Bake the casserole: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the fried onions turn golden brown.
Cool and serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. This helps it set slightly and makes serving easier.

Notes

You can use fresh, canned, or frozen green beans depending on availability and preference.
For extra creaminess, add a splash more milk if the mixture seems too thick before baking.
To add more flavor, consider mixing in a small amount of garlic powder or grated cheddar cheese before baking.
This casserole pairs wonderfully with roasted meats or as a holiday side dish.
Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven for best results.
