Green Bean Casserole

Last week I was unable to post a recipe because we were getting ready to leave for Pittsburgh. Now that we’ve been here for a week and it’s Christmas I figured I would share something delicious with you. I think that most people think of Thanksgiving when they think of green bean casserole, but it’s great any tie of the year, and you can use this recipe for New Year’s Eve if you want. Or you could save it for next November.

What You’ll Need….

1lb Fresh Green Beans (Ends cut off and cut down to 1-inch pieces.)

1 Can Cream of Mushroom Soup

½ Cup Chicken Stock

1 Tablespoon Dijon or Stone Ground Mustard

Pepper (To taste)

1 1/3 Cups French Fried Onions or Potato Chips

Pre-heat your oven to 350.

Start out by prepping your beans. Bring a medium sauce pan of water to a boil and blanch the beans.  

While you wait for the water to come to a boil combine the soup, chicken stock, mustard and pepper in a medium mixing bowl.

Once the beans have been blanched, do not shock them, place them in the bowl with the “sauce”.  Also at this time add in 1/3 Cup of the onions or chips. Stir to coat the beans.

Pour the bean mixture in a greased glass baking pan and bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the rest of the onions on top. Bake for an additional 5 minutes.

Enjoy!
