Ingredients:

  • 10 oz (283g) canned green beans, drained
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 can (10.5 oz / 298g) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5g) garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp (1.25g) black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups (170g) French-fried onions
  • 1/2 cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained green beans, condensed mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir with a rubber spatula until the beans are fully enveloped in a velvety, uniform sauce.
  2. Pour the mixture into your baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until the edges are bubbling vigorously and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  3. Remove the dish from the oven. Quickly sprinkle the French-fried onions and optional Parmesan evenly across the top.
  4. Return to the oven for another 5–10 minutes until the onions are a deep mahogany-brown and fragrant.
