Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 900 grams fresh green beans, trimmed
- 2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1.5 cups crispy fried onions
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and blanch the green beans for 4-5 minutes, then immediately transfer to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper until combined.
Place the blanched green beans in the slow cooker and pour the soup mixture over them. Stir gently to coat the beans evenly in the sauce.
Dot the top with small pieces of butter for added richness.
Cover and cook on low heat for 4 hours, stirring once halfway through if possible.
In the last 15 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the crispy fried onions evenly over the top of the casserole. Replace the cover and let cook for the final 15 minutes.
Once done, give the casserole a gentle stir to mix the onions slightly into the sauce and serve hot.
