½ cup French fried onions

1 package of frozen onion rings

Using a spoon or spatula, scoop soup/green bean mixture into the middle of each onion ring, making sure to fill each ring evenly before placing another onion ring on top and repeating the process. (NOTE: Make sure to use the largest onion rings first as the base to your stacks, using the smaller rings later towards the top.)

Let cool for at least 5 minute before transferring to a plate to serve.
