Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom Soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups green beans (fresh, canned, or frozen)
  • 1.5 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 6 ounces dry stuffing mix
  • 1.5 cups French fried onions, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup, milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well.
  3. Stir in green beans and half of the fried onions.
  4. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and pour in the green bean mixture.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt butter, then add chicken broth and stuffing mix. Stir until stuffing is fully moistened.
  6. Spread stuffing mixture evenly over the green beans, gently pressing it in.
  7. Top with the remaining fried onions.
  8. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Cover with foil if the top browns too quickly.
  9. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.
  • Fresh, canned, or frozen green beans all work—just avoid French-cut style.
  • To make ahead, assemble the casserole and refrigerate without topping. Add onions and stuffing just before baking.
  • For extra flavor, add cooked mushrooms, crumbled bacon, or shredded cheese.
