Prepared chicken, green beans and cheese. This recipe typically calls for heavy cream and mayo, but I lightened it by substituting evaporated milk and low-fat mayo. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups fresh cut french style green beans |
1 tablespoon butter, salted |
2 celery ribs, raw |
1 medium yellow onion |
1/2 cup mayonnaise, light |
1/4 cup evaporated milk (2%) |
1/2 teaspoon pepper, black |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 . 9 oz |
8 ounces fancy shredded mild cheddar cheese |
2 cups diced chicken breasts, strips |
Directions:
1. Saute the celery and onion in butter until browned.
2. Put the beans, and celery/onion mixture in a 2 1/2-3 quart casserole (you may also add mushrooms to this dish, if you like);.
3. stir in the mayonnaise, cream and seasonings. Mix well.
4. Stir in the cheese and chicken.
5. Bake, uncovered, at 350ยบ 30-40 minutes, until bubbly and brown or microwave on MEDIUM about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
