Skillet Green Bean Casserole
This easy green bean casserole is made in a skillet with homemade mushroom sauce, fresh green beans, and crispy fried onions. You can make it over your campfire, or on your camp stove, grill, or stovetop.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 to 2 ½ cups cream cheese mushroom sauce
- 1 pound (454 g) fresh green beans trimmed and cut into 2-inch (5-cm) pieces
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- ½ cup crispy fried onions
Instructions
- Pour 2 cups of mushroom sauce into a 10-to-12-inch skillet and set it over medium heat. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
- Stir in the green beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are just tender and the mushroom sauce has reduced to a thick coating, 8 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the fried onions. Serve directly from the skillet.
Notes
-
- Make it saucy--If you prefer an extra saucy casserole, use 2 ½ cups of mushroom sauce.
-
- For soft green beans--This green bean casserole skillet makes for tender, but still slightly crunchy green beans. If you prefer a softer bean, add an extra ½ cup of mushroom sauce and simmer the beans for an extra 5 minutes, or until they are softened to your liking.
-
- Storage and reheating--Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in your cooler or fridge for up to 3 days. Rewarm over low heat in a skillet, adding extra mushroom sauce, milk, or cream to loosen the sauce, if needed.
