Ingredients for Campbell Soup Green Bean Casserole

  • Before diving into the recipe let’s gather everything you need to create this creamy, crispy, and flavorful classic. Whether you stick to the traditional version or customize it with a few upgrades, these ingredients will ensure a perfect balance of richness, texture, and savory goodness.

Essential Ingredients:

  • 4 cups green beans fresh, frozen, or canned, drained
  • 1 can 10.5 oz Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
  • ½ cup milk whole or 2% for creaminess
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce enhances the savory depth
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • 1 ½ cups crispy fried onions French’s or your favorite brand

Optional Add-Ins for Extra Flavor:

  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese for a cheesy twist
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder for added depth
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika for a hint of warmth
  • 4 slices cooked crumbled bacon (for a smoky, savory kick)
  • ½ cup sautéed mushrooms if you love extra umami flavor

Choosing the Right Green Beans

  • Fresh: Trim the ends and blanch them for 2-3 minutes before using. This keeps them vibrant and slightly crisp.
  • Frozen: Thaw and drain before mixing to avoid excess moisture.
  • Canned: The quickest option—just drain well and they’re ready to go!

How to Make Campbell Soup Green Bean Casserole

  • Making this classic green bean casserole is incredibly simple, yet the results are always impressive. With just a few easy steps, you'll have a dish that’s creamy, crispy, and bursting with comforting flavors. Follow this step-by-step guide to get it just right!

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  • Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even baking and allows the flavors to meld together perfectly.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine:
  • Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup
  • Milk (this helps thin the soup for a smooth consistency)
  • Soy sauce and black pepper for a well-balanced savory flavor
  • Green beans (fresh, frozen, or canned—see ingredient notes for prep tips)
  • Stir everything until the beans are well coated in the creamy mixture.

Step 3: Assemble the Casserole

  • Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  • Spread the green bean mixture evenly into the dish.
  • Sprinkle ⅔ cup of crispy fried onions on top—this adds an initial layer of crunch.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

  • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the mixture is hot and bubbling.

Step 5: Add the Crispy Topping

  • Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining crispy fried onions on top.
  • Return it to the oven and bake for 5 more minutes, just until the onions turn golden brown and extra crispy.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

  • Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving—this helps the flavors settle. Serve it alongside your favorite holiday dishes or enjoy it as a comforting side any time of the year!
