A tasty green bean casserole recipe with cheese.

  • 3 cups cooked and drained green beans (use canned, frozen, or fresh cooked)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
  • 1/2 cup liquid from drained green beans
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs tossed with 1 tablespoon melted butter

Preparation:

Cook beans; drain and reserve 1/2 cup of cooking liquid (Heat through if using canned beans). Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan; blend in flour. Add milk slowly and cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Add cheese, mustard, and reserved cooking liquid. Stir until cheese melts. Add salt and pepper. Place alternating layers of green beans and sauce in a greased casserole, then top with buttered crumbs. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.

Casserole well received!November 22, 2007By wifeandmommy
"My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the green bean casserole. It was a refreshing alternative to the usual green bean casserole we make with mushroom soup. I accidentally doubled the cheese, but hey... you can never have too much cheese, right? Personally, the topping was my favorite!"
