Description

A creamy and crunchy green bean casserole that blends comfort and nostalgia, perfect for any holiday table.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ cups crispy fried onions
  • Optional: sprinkle of garlic powder or fresh herbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  4. Combine the green beans and the sauce in a large mixing bowl. Gently stir until the beans are evenly coated.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and top with a generous layer of fried onions.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Optional: For an extra crunch, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes.
