This isn’t your grandma’s green bean casserole — it’s the 2025 Broke Gourmet upgrade! We start with the classic Campbell’s Cream of Mushroom base, but take it next-level with a little sour cream for extra creaminess, sweet corn for a pop of flavor and color, and a golden, crunchy topping of French fried onions mixed with buttery panko breadcrumbs. The result? A creamy, cozy holiday side dish that’s rich, crisp, and full of texture — still budget-friendly, still easy, but totally holiday-table worthy. Perfect for family gatherings, potlucks, or just when you want comfort food that feels a little more special.
