Here is a recipe I made up years ago when I was harvesting a rich crop of green beans.

Ingredients:
2 Tb margarine or butter
2 Tb flour
1 tsp salt
1 Tb onion flakes (or 1/2 chopped onions)
dash of pepper
1/2 c. plain, unflavored yogurt
2/3 c. cottage cheese
3 cups fresh green beans (or frozen), steamed tender and drained
1/2 to 3/4 c. shredded mild cheddar cheese
1/2 to 3/4 c. bread crumbs
2 slices of bacon

Make white sauce of butter, flour, salt and pepper. Then add onion, yogurt and cottage cheese. Mix well. Heat just to bubbling.
Mix in green beans and 1/2 bread crumbs.
Pour into greased casserole dish.
Top with the rest of bread crumbs, cheddar cheese and bacon strips.
Bake at 350 F. for 30 minutes. Serves 2-3 adults.

This is a mild recipe but choosing a different cheese, such as a jalapeno mix and adding such spices as garlic powder could change the flavor.

I suggest you try it and then experiment.
People rave when I serve this.
