Ingredients:
2 drained cans, French cut green beans (you can also use regular cut green beans)
2 can cream of mushroom soup
1 small container fried onions
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In your baking dish (can use 8×8 square), add in the green beans.
You can also combine the ingredients in a bowl.
Add in the cream of mushroom soup, pepper and mix together. (why dirty a bowl, when you can mix it in the container you are cooking it)
Take the container of fried onions and sprinkle it on top until it is coated.
Bake for 20-30 minutes until it’s heated through.
Remove from heat and serve.
Tips:
