Here is a recipe I made up years ago when I was harvesting a rich crop of green beans.<\/p>\n
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<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
I suggest you try it and then experiment.
People rave when I serve this.<\/p>\n
