• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 cups French fried onions
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.

Step 2

In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of mixed frozen vegetables to a boil in salted water. Cook for 2-3 minutes until just tender, then drain and set aside.

Step 3

In the same saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour, whisking constantly for 1 minute to create a roux.

Step 4

Gradually pour in 0.5 cup of milk while whisking to create a smooth sauce. Reduce heat to low and let it thicken for 1-2 minutes.

Step 5

Add 1 can (10.5 ounces) of cream of mushroom soup, 1 cup of sour cream, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder, 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt to the saucepan. Stir until well combined and the cheese is fully melted.

Step 6

Gently fold the cooked mixed vegetables into the creamy sauce until evenly coated.

Step 7

Transfer the vegetable mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle 1.5 cups of French fried onions evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Step 10

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
