Green Bean Caserole
This is actually an easy one that even a frazzled, busy family can throw together for a family holiday meal or just the usual Wednesday.
2 cans green beans
2 cans cream of mushroom soup or 1 large can
2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 regular-size can french-fried onions
Drain water from beans and then stir together all ingredients except onions in a glass bowl. Add one half of onions and stir until just combined. Bake at 350 degrees for about one hour. Stir and then add the rest of the onions to the top. Bake for about 5 minutes more.
Makes enough for four really hungry people. Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for larger groups.
