What, no sautéed bacon and onions in with the mushroom soup and green beans? That's what makes it!

No one in my family likes mushrooms so I always substitute with cream of chicken soup! The casserole tastes great with it!

Lois Robarts says:
can this be made with fresh green beans instead of canned green beans
-
Cyd says:
Yes, but you would need to make adjustments. Green beans in the can are already cooked. So take that into consideration for the cooking time.

Tracy Kohls says:
Can you double this recipe and if so how long does it cook?
-
Momma Cyd says:
You can easily double this recipe. It should work great in a 9 x 13 inch pan. Cook time should be about the same.

Chris says:
I added bacon & cheddar cheese. Also sprinkled in some Jalapeño Cajun seasoning.
