Notes
I used canned green beans because that is what we prefer. Feel free to substitute an equivalent amount of fresh or frozen green beans — about 3 pounds fresh or 32 oz frozen.
For the French onion dip, use a refrigerated sour cream-based dip such as Kraft, Dean’s, Barber’s, or Heluva Good. Avoid shelf-stable options.
If unavailable, mix a tablespoon or two of onion soup mix into sour cream as a substitute.
Use Unsalted Cream of Mushroom Soup to better control sodium levels.
Can be made in advance and refrigerated overnight before baking — just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
This casserole also freezes well. Wrap tightly and freeze. Thaw before baking.
