Here’s What You’ll Need:
Gather up your ingredients, and let’s get cooking!
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup crispy fried onions
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Now, Let’s Talk Instructions:
Follow these simple steps, and soon you’ll have a mouthwatering casserole bubbling away in your kitchen!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a baking dish and grease it with olive oil to keep things from sticking.
- Blanch the green beans in boiling water for about 5 minutes, then drain them and put them in ice water to stop the cooking process.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, milk, heavy cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix it all up until it’s nice and smooth.
- Add the blanched green beans to the mixture and fold in half of the crispy fried onions and half of the cheese. Stir until everything is well coated.
- Pour the mixture into your greased baking dish and spread it evenly. Top with the remaining cheese and crispy fried onions for that crunch!
- Bake it in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until it’s bubbly and golden on top.
- Once it’s out of the oven, let it sit for about 5-10 minutes before serving it up. This dish pairs beautifully with roasted turkey or glazed ham—tell me you don’t want to dig into that!
