FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Can I use canned green beans?
While fresh is best, you can use canned – just reduce cooking time by half and drain well.

Why add the onions last?
Adding them near the end keeps them crispy. If added too early, they’ll become soggy.
Can I make this ahead?
Yes! Prepare everything except the French fried onions up to 24 hours ahead. Add onions just before serving.
TIPS FOR SUCCESS:
