I've had more requests for this classy, easy recipe over the years than I can count! It's unique from the soup and french fried onion version, and was a favourite of an old friend - the ultimate dinner party hostess of the 60's and 70's. I've never been fond of green beans, but this changed my mind and is a hit with all ages. It's perfect for a family dinner and can be made the day before and reheated for guests. It's a real winner. Ingredients:
2/3 cup onion, chopped |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup cottage cheese (full fat is the best) |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated |
1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs |
3 eggs, beaten |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
3 cups green beans, cooked (french cut frozen) |
1/4 teaspoon sweet basil |
1 dash pepper |
Directions:
1. Saute onion in butter until onion is transparent.
2. Combine onion with cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, eggs and seasonings.
3. Place half the cooked green beans in a large buttered casserole dish.
4. Top with half of the cheese mixture, then remaining beans and cheese mixture.
5. Bake 30 minutes at 375.
