Crockpot Green Bean Casserole
Description
The casserole starts by layering frozen green beans in the crockpot, then topping them with a mixture of cream of mushroom soup, milk, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Half of the French-fried onions are stirred into this mixture to soften during cooking. The dish cooks on low for 4 hours, allowing flavors to combine gently.
Just before serving, the remaining French-fried onions are sprinkled on top to provide a fresh crispy topping. This contrast of creamy and crunchy textures is characteristic. The casserole can be kept warm in the crockpot for up to 2 hours after cooking.
Leftovers store well for up to 3 days in an airtight container and reheat in the microwave or oven. To restore crispness to the onions, placing leftovers under the broiler briefly is recommended. This approach provides a hands-off method to create a classic comfort food side.
Ingredients
- 2 (16-ounce) packages green beans frozen
- 2 (10.75-ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
- ⅔ cup milk
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 16 ounces French-fried onions divided
Instructions
- Add the green beans to the crock pot. In a medium bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup, milk, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Pour the soup mixture over the green beans and stir to combine. Stir in half of the French fried onions.
- Cover and cook on low heat for 4 hours. Just before serving, sprinkle with the remaining French fried onions.
Notes
- Prepare the casserole ahead of time by assembling without the topping onions and refrigerate until ready to cook.
- After cooking, keep the casserole warm in the crockpot on low for up to 2 hours before serving.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat leftovers in the microwave or oven, and restore crispy topping by briefly broiling.
