Slow Cooker Green Bean Casserole

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 10oz cans Cream of Mushroom Soup, undiluted
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

  optional
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 lbs frozen french style green beans
• 2 ½ cups French Fried Onions

  about ¾ of a 6oz container or 2 (2.8oz containers)

Instructions

• 1 Add the two cans of undiluted cream of mushroom soup to a medium sized bowl.
• 2 Add in the milk, shredded cheese (if using), and ground black pepper. Fold
  together using a silicone spatula until thoroughly combined.
• 3 Add 2lbs of frozen French style green beans to the insert of a 6 quart slow
  cooker.
• 4 Pour the soup mixture on top of the green beans, and stir as well as you
  possibly can to distribute the soup mixture over the beans. Since they are
  frozen, this will be difficult to do, but will get easier once the beans have
  thawed.
• 5 Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on high for 3 ½ to 4 hours, stirring
  several times to help distribute the soup mixture on top of the green beans and
  to help thaw any remaining frozen beans.
• 6 Once the casserole is bubbly, hot and cooked through, prepare your french fried
  onions. You want them to be crispy, so I have three methods for ensuring a
  crispy French fried onion.
  
  Method 1: Add 1 tablespoon of butter to a medium sized skillet over medium heat.
  Once melted, add the French fried onions and toss with the butter. Stir
  frequently, toasting the French fried onions in the skillet. Once they have
  changed to a more golden hue, spread on top of the casserole and serve
  immediately.
  Method 2: Add the French fried onions to an air fryer and cook at 350F for 1-2
  minutes. (This is my favorite method!)
  Method 3: Add the French fried onions to a broiler safe pan and place under
  broil for about 1 minute, watching them carefully to avoid burning.
  Alternative: If you would prefer, you can place the French fried onions on top
  without toasting them or crisping them up, but the results will not be as
  crunchy!
• 7 Serve immediately and enjoy!
