Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a 2-quart casserole dish, add 1 can of cream of celery soup (instead of cream of mushroom).

Add 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper and 3/4 cup of milk to the soup.

Blend the mixture together carefully with a fork.

Add 2 cans of drained green beans (14 oz each) to the mixture and stir until well coated.

Add half of a 6 oz container of French's crispy fried onions (3 oz) to the green bean mixture and stir in.

Flatten the mixture down in the casserole dish and set aside.

In another 2-quart casserole dish, add the packet of McCormick green bean casserole seasoning mix.

Add 1/2 cup of hot water to the seasoning mix and blend together with a whisk.

Add 3/4 cup of milk to the seasoning mixture and blend until smooth.

Stir in 2 cans of drained green beans and mix until coated.

Add the entire 6 oz container of French's crispy fried onions to the mixture and blend together.

Both casseroles will cook in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, remove the casseroles from the oven and check the consistency.

Top the casseroles with the remaining fried onions and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the onions.

Remove from the oven and prepare for taste testing.
