Description

Crockpot Green Bean Casserole is a creamy, flavorful holiday side dish that combines tender green beans with a rich, cheesy sauce and crispy French fried onions. Made in the slow cooker, it’s hands-off, perfectly cooked, and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for any gathering.


Ingredients

Scale

2 lbs fresh green beans, washed and trimmed

2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of mushroom soup

1 cup milk

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

1 ½ cups French fried onions, divided

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese


Instructions

1. Blanch green beans in boiling water for 5 minutes, then plunge into an ice bath; drain well.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.

3. Stir in 1 cup French fried onions and shredded cheddar cheese.

4. Add green beans to the crockpot and pour sauce over top; gently stir to coat.

5. Cover and cook on LOW for 5-6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours.

6. About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle remaining ½ cup French fried onions on top, cover, and let warm.

Notes

Cool casserole completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Reheat in the microwave for single servings or oven at 350°F for larger portions.

Do not skip blanching fresh green beans to prevent watery casserole.

Add toppings at the end for a crispy texture.

Optional swaps: frozen or canned green beans, make-from-scratch mushroom sauce, add crispy bacon, swap cheddar for Swiss cheese.
