Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups fresh green beans, ends removed and cut in half
- 8 ounces (226 grams) button mushrooms, sliced
- ½ cup onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Dairy and Soup Base:
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 10.75 ounces (305 grams) low-sodium cream of mushroom soup
- 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions
- Fire up the oven to 350 degrees, creating the perfect environment for a mouthwatering dish.
- In a large skillet, transform butter into a golden pool of potential. Introduce onions and mushrooms, coaxing them to tenderness over medium heat. Sprinkle in garlic, allowing its aromatic essence to bloom for a brief moment before removing from the heat.
- Prepare the green beans by combining them with chicken broth in a saucepan. Bring to a vigorous boil, letting the beans dance in the liquid for approximately 8 minutes until they reach crisp-tender perfection. Drain thoroughly.
- Grab a 2-quart baking dish and give it a light coating of cooking spray. In a spacious mixing bowl, orchestrate a symphony of flavors by blending cream soup, the sautéed mushroom medley, green beans, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
- Transfer the harmonious mixture to the prepared baking dish, crowning it with a regal layer of crispy onion strings.
- Slide the casserole into the preheated oven, allowing it to bake for 20 minutes. Watch for the telltale signs of culinary success: heated through and bubbling enticingly around the edges.
