~Green Bean Casserole~


This is NOT the typical boring casserole recipe that calls for Cream of Mushroom soup!! This recipe is a million times better, thanks to my sister Ashley! It is seriously amazing and everyone she and I have made it for has loved it. This green bean dish is one of my husband's favorites and he requests these often. Unfortunately these pictures hardly do them justice, but I promise the cheesy goodness is one sweet dish sure to impress your friends and family.

Serves 4

you'll need:

1 pkg frozen cut green beans (or enough fresh green beans to be thick in an 8x8 pan)
1/8 c. finely chopped yellow onion
2 Tbs. butter
1 Tbs. whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. ground mustard
1 c. evaporated milk
4 oz. Velveeta cheese, cubed
French's Dried Onions

get busy:

Preheat the oven to 350. Microwave the green beans until cooked. Meanwhile, saute the onion in the butter until tender. Remove from heat; whisk in flour, salt, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard until blended.

Gradually stir in the milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat; stir in cheese cubes. Stir until the cheese completely melts.


Gently fold the green beans into the cheese sauce. Pour them into an 8x8 dish. Bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle some French's Dried onions on top and cook for another 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is bubbly and onions are hot. If you are cooking for more than 4 or want leftovers, simply double the recipe. Enjoy!!
