Guest guest Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Here is a nice green bean casserole recipe that is different from the typical holiday dish that calls for cream of mushroom soup. Give this one a try. We loved it. Fancy French Beans 4 cup frozen French-style green beans 1 cup bean sprouts 1 can (8oz) sliced water chestnuts, drained 2 Tbs butter or margarine 2 Tbs all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp pepper Dash cayenne pepper 1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream 1/2 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce 1/2 cup sliced almonds 1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese Cook beans according to package directions. Add bean sprouts and water chestnuts; heat through. Drain well and set aside. In a sauce pan, melt butter. Stir in flour, salt, pepper and cayenne until smooth. Gradually add cream. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add Worcestershire sauce and bean mixture; toss to coat. Pour into a greased 2 quart baking dish. Combine almonds and cheeses; sprinkle over the top. Broil 4 to 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes or until almonds are golden brown and cheese bubbly. Yield: 6 to 8 servings ~ PT ~ Only one who devotes themselves to a cause with their whole strength and soul can be a true master. ~ Albert Einstein (1875-1955) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
