Ingredients

  • 16 ounce package frozen French-cut green beans ((or see Variations section below for substitutes))
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon less-sodium soy sauce
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 ⅓ cups crispy fried onions, (divided)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 1 ½ -quart baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. Place frozen green beans in a large microwave-safe bowl. Add a splash of water, cover, and microwave just until crisp-tender (about 5 minutes). Drain and return green beans to the bowl.

  2. 2

    Add condensed soup, milk, soy sauce, pepper, and ⅔ cup of the fried onions to the bowl with the green beans; stir to combine.

  3. 3

    Transfer the green bean mixture to the prepared baking dish.

  4. 4

    Bake, uncovered, for 25 minutes. Stir, sprinkle remaining ⅔ cup of fried onions on top, and bake until the filling it hot and bubbly and the topping is lightly browned, about 5 more minutes.
