How To Make louisiana cowboy green bean casserole

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • 2
    Coat the bottom and sides of a 1-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • 3
    Add 1 cup crushed barbecue potato chips and place thawed green beans on top.
  • 4
    Fry the bacon in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until brown and crispy. Remove to drain on paper towels. Drain off some of the grease and return the pan to the stove.
  • 5
    Add the sliced mushrooms and sliced banana peppers to the grease in the saucepan and season with creole seasoning, garlic powder and black pepper. Cook and stir until tender, about 3 minutes.
  • 6
    Reduced to low heat.
  • 7
    In a medium bowl, combine heavy whipping cream, dry onion soup mix, cream cheese, creole mustard and barbecue sauce and whisk together until blended.
  • 8
    Pour the mixture into the saucepan with the mushroom mixture and stir to scrape the bacon flavor from the bottom of the saucepan. Simmer until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • 9
    Pour over the green bean mixture. Crumble the bacon over the top and sprinkle with shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese and remaining crushed barbecue potato chips.
  • 10
    Bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven until the sauce is bubbling and the top is toasted.
