What you'll Need:
• 1 Jar of Di Bruno Bros. Abbruzze cheese Spread
• 1 lb fresh green beans
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup (or homemade if preferred)
• ½ cup whole milk
• 1 cup crispy fried onions
• ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• Salt & pepper, to taste
How to Make It Happen:
Blanch the Beans: Cook your green beans in boiling water until crisp-tender (about 3–5 minutes), then shock in ice water to keep them bright green.
The Spicy Mix: In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, and a generous portion of the Abbruzze Cheese Spread.
Assemble: Fold in the blanched beans, half of the crispy onions, and the Parmesan.
Bake: Transfer to a baking dish and bake at 350°F (175°C) until bubbly.
The Crunch: Top with the remaining fried onions during the last 5 minutes of baking for that perfect golden finish.
Pro Tip: If you want an even deeper flavor profile, sauté some fresh mushrooms with a little butter and garlic before folding them into the mix.
