As Heather Campbell puts it, âHereâs a nice substitute to plain green bean casserole.â The Lawrence, Kansas field editor prepares a well-seasoned cheese sauce to add zip to this familiar dish. Ingredients:
4 packages (16 ounces each) frozen cut green beans |
1/4 cup finely chopped onion |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
2 cups evaporated milk |
8 ounces process cheese (velveeta), shredded |
topping: |
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs |
2 teaspoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Cook green beans according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, saute onion in butter until tender. Remove from the heat; whisk in the flour, salt, paprika, Worcestershire sauce and mustard until blended.
2. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat; stir in cheese.
3. Drain beans; gently fold into cheese sauce. Transfer to a large serving bowl. Toss bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over beans. Yield: 12-16 servings.
