Ingredients

2 pounds haricots verts (French thin green beans)
2 large red onions, finely diced
8 tablespoons (1/2 cup or 1 stick) butter, unsalted
2 (10-ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
3 tomatoes, seeded and diced
4 cans French-fried onions
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Blanch the haricots verts in hot water for about 3 to 5 minutes then remove from heat and shock in iced water. Drain and set aside to cool.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

In a large skillet saute the chopped onion in butter. Then add the cooled beans and saute for a couple of minutes. Add the canned mushroom soup and mix well.

Transfer to a buttered casserole dish and top with the diced tomato, French-fried onions, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Bake in oven for about 10 minutes.

HOLIDAY FAVORITE!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Last Thanksgiving saw this recipe, and it looked good. I didn't follow a few things, I mean, somethings were a bit much. Like... I only add about 2 or 3 CANS of haricots, 1 onion, and 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup. No tomatoes. It is simpler and cheaper. Oh, and 1 or 2 cans of French Fried Onions. When I served it up my entire family gobbled it down within 10 minutes and looked for more! Try it, I like my way, his way is good too.Read more

Everyone Loved It!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made this for dinner with 12 family members and everyone enjoyed it. Even my sister-in-law, who helped prepare it and was... hesitant about the tomatoes, liked it a lot. It was easy to prepare and we will have it again this Thanksgiving!Read more

Nice twist to the traditional casserole
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great and easy green bean casserole to have during the busy holidays. I only used one red onion, but added 12... ounces of sauteed thin sliced cremini mushrooms and added about 4 ounces of half and half. I also used a fire roasted diced tomato, instead of regular diced tomatoes.Read more

Didn't work for us.
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Went exactly by the recipe. It was just boring and not very tasty. Served it to a crowd yesterday and had more than half... left. Won't make it again. Will stick with the old recipe or delete it from the menu. To each his own!Read more

Fabulous
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My family was leary of the tomatoes and red onions in the non-traditional green bean casserole, but it was actually the best... dish at Thanksgiving! Everyone loved it, even the skeptical ones. Thanks for the great recipe!Read more

Easy and Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this twice for 2 different holiday parties and this recipe, which is a twist on an old favorite, was the most... popular! Make sure to use red onions to add a nice sweetness to the dish. Once you make this, you'll never want to use canned grean beans again!Read more
