Serves/Makes:4

Ingredients

• 2 cans cut green beans (reserve juice from one can)
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) onion powder
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk
• 1 tsp (5 ml) salt
• 1 tsp (5 ml) pepper
• French Fried Onions (optional)
• 1/2 cup (125 ml) fresh sliced mushrooms (optional)

Preparation

• In large bowl stir together mushroom soup and all other ingredients except fried onions, adding the beans last (drain one can and pour in juice from the other).
• Adding them last helps keep the green beans from becoming smashed or broken as you stir with the spoon (use a wooden spoon if you have one).
• Bake in 350 degree (175 C.) oven for approximately 25 to 30 minutes or until bubbly and the top begins to brown.
• Top with fried onions, if you prefer, and bake until onions are golden brown.

Comments

The onion powder in this recipe is what makes the difference. I also sometimes throw in l/2 cup fresh sliced mushrooms.
