Green Bean Casserole

Be the first to review!
A creamy, cheesy Green Bean Casserole makes an easy comfort-food side dish with very little prep. Canned green beans are mixed with cream of mushroom soup, cheddar cheese soup, shredded cheddar, and black pepper, then topped with crispy fried onions and more cheese before baking until warm, bubbly, and golden on top. It’s simple, budget-friendly, family-friendly, and especially great for Thanksgiving, Christmas, potlucks, or cozy weeknight dinners.
