Ingredients
4 cans (14.5 ounces each) Green beans, drained well
2 cans (10.5 ounces each) Condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup Whole milk
1/2 teaspoon Coarse ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder
1/2 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
2 2/3 cups Crispy fried onions, divided
6 slices Cooked turkey bacon, divided
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to three hundred fifty Fahrenheit.
2. Whisk soup, milk, pepper, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
3. Fold in drained green beans, 5 strips of crumbled turkey bacon, half of the cheese, and half of the onions.
4. Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish and bake for 25 minutes.
5. Remove and stir. Top with remaining cheese, onions, and the final strip of crumbled turkey bacon.
6. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes until the topping is golden brown.
Notes
Dry the beans thoroughly after draining to prevent a watery sauce.
Use sharp cheddar to balance the richness of the mushroom soup.
Allow the dish to rest for 10 minutes before serving to let the sauce set.
