Ingredients
- 2 lbs fresh green beans trimmed and cut in half or thirds
- 4 cups Homemade cream of mushroom soup
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 3-4 leaves fresh sage minced
- 12-14 oz French's fried onions
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400°, set rack to middle of oven, and put a large pot of salted water to boil.
- If using pre-made soup that's been stored in the fridge. Add soup to a medium saucepan to warm.
- Once water comes to a boil, add beans. Boil beans for 5 minutes and then drain.
- Add beans to a pan and sprinkle salt, pepper, and minced sage on top.
- Mix warmed soup in with the green beans so that it is all well incorporated.
- Sprinkle in some of the French's Fried Onions and give another mix. Or just top green beans and mushrooms with all of the fried onions.
- Bake in oven for 10-15 minutes or until onions begin to brown.
Notes
- Substitutions:
- Substitutions:
- Green Beans: While fresh is of course our preferred, you can also use frozen. That's going to be the closest. Use whole frozen green beans and let them thaw before adding them to the pan.
- Cream of Mushroom Soup: Homemade is our preferred due to flavor and mushrooms, but you can use canned as well. For this recipe, use 2 canned cups of condensed cream of mushroom soup with 1 1/2 cups of water mixed in.
- French's Fried Onions: Use 12-14 oz of pre-made fried onions.
- Prepare in Advance
- Prepare in Advance
- You can prepare almost all of the components up to 3 days in advance.
- Green Beans: Blanch the green beans and store them in the fridge, or freeze them for up to 6 months. Add green beans directly from the fridge into a casserole dish. Let frozen greens thaw before adding to the casserole dish.
- Soup: Prepare the soup and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Onions: Prepare the French's Fried Onions and ensure they cool completely before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature
- Prepare the entire casserole up to 2 days in advance, minus the fried onions, and store it assembled in the fridge. To bake, remove casserole from the fridge and let it come up to room temp, at least 30 minutes and up to 60. Add onions and bake.
