Green Bean Casserole

 I don't exactly know where this dish started but I can honestly say for the past 30 years it has been on many holiday tables.  I would be remiss if I were to leave this simple , but yummy "green beany" "oniony" goodness out of the holiday recipe list.

What You Need
1 1/2 Lbs fresh green beans
1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Cream of Mushroom Soup
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp soy sauce
Dash ground black pepper
1 1/3 cups French Fried Onions
1 ½ Qt casserole dish

Before You Start: Preheat oven to 350 ° Cooke green beans until tender

Lets Make It! In the casserole dish combine soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, beans and 2/3 cup onions and stir well. Bake for 25 minutes or until the bean mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir the bean mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining onions. Bake for 5 minutes or until the onions are golden brown.

Katies Tid Bits* Use 1 bag (16 to 20 oz.) frozen green beans, thawed, or 2 cans (about 16 oz. each) green beans, drained if you do not have fresh green beans available.
