Green Bean Casserole

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

Directions

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.
