Cream Cheese Bacon Green Bean Casserole is maybe the most flavorful green bean casserole ever. I think I love it even more than this Cheesy Green Bean Casserole

Extra Flavor

A standard green bean casserole with condensed soup and a French-fried onion topping is delicious. But add bacon, cream cheese, and a packet of dry onion soup mix and you have the most scrumptious green bean casserole imaginable. It is sure to make converts of people who don’t think they like this quintessential Thanksgiving casserole.

The cream cheese gives this casserole a richness that green bean casserole typically doesn’t have.

French-Fried Onion and Ritz Cracker Topping

Another thing about this Thanksgiving casserole that I really love is it has both french-fried onions and crushed Ritz crackers in the topping. The two combined together make a super crunchy and buttery topping.
Make In Advance

This casserole can be assembled 24 hours in advance. Wait to sprinkle the topping on just prior to baking so it doesn’t get soggy.

Condensed Soup

You can use either condensed cream of onion soup or condensed cream of mushroom soup. Condensed cream of chicken soup would work well too.

Can I Use Frozen or Canned Green Beans"

While I prefer to use fresh green beans, this recipe can be made with frozen or canned green beans. If using frozen, thaw them completely. If using canned, drain them well.
