Ingredients
  

Casserole Components
  • 2 cans Green Beans (14.5 oz each), drained
  • 1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup (10.75 oz)
  • 0.5 cup Milk
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1.33 cups French Fried Onions divided

Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • 8x8 inch baking dish
  • Oven

Method
 

The Growth Process
  1. In a large bowl, "plant" your drained green beans, cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, and pepper; stir to combine.
  2. Gently "nurture" the mixture by pouring it into an 8x8 inch baking dish.
  3. Place the dish in your preheated "sunlight" (oven) at 350°F (175°C) and "germinate" for 20 minutes.
  4. After initial "growth," sprinkle 2/3 cup of french fried onions evenly over the casserole.
  5. Return the casserole to the oven and "blossom" for another 5-10 minutes, or until the onions are golden brown and the casserole is bubbly. Garnish with the remaining fried onions.

Notes

For an extra layer of "soil" (flavor), consider adding a pinch of garlic powder to the mixture before baking. Ensure the casserole is thoroughly heated through for optimal "harvesting" enjoyment.
