White cheddar will not lend an orange tint to the sauce. Fry the bacon until crispy-crunchy. Drain and set aside. Stir soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, beans, and 1-1/3 cups onions and half of the bacon in a 3 qt casserole. Add in and melt cheese to create a rich & creamy sauce. Bake at 350°F/175°C, uncovered, 25 minutes or until bean mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir bean mixture. Sprinkle with remaining onions and bacon. Sliced or slivered almonds are delicious sprinkled on with the French fried onions and give the casserole extra crunch. Sprinkle cheese on top as desired. Bake 5 minutes longer or until onions are golden brown. Recipe FROM: http://www.meijer.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen MMMMM
