Green Bean Casserole

I absolutely love this version of the classic green bean casserole. Fresh green beans provide an extra fresh and crisp flavor but canned green beans are quick and easy.

Ingredients:
2-3 cups fresh green beans (or two cans)
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
 1/3 stick of butter
3 cups chicken broth (or use a chicken bouillon cube or flavor boost packet)
1 can cream of mushroom soup (preferably the roasted garlic flavor)
1 (2.8 oz) French Fried Onion Rings (use extra for topping)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
salt
pepper
garlic powder

  1. Boil green beans if chicken broth until tender. Drain once done.
  2. In skillet, melt butter and saute the onions and mushrooms.
  3. In skillet, add green beans, mushroom soup, onion rings, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
  4. Transfer to greased baking dish and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
  5. Top with cheddar cheese and onion rings to top then continue cooking 10 minutes. Cheese well be well melted when done.
This recipes serves 4 people. If cooking for two just half the ingredients or if cooking for more than 4, double. You can also add chopped celery to the onion and mushroom mixture.
