Green Bean Casserole

posted by RebeccaMohning

Ingredients:

HEALTHY NOTE: I'm just wild about beans, and you should be, too. They’re chock full of protein and fiber – and they taste great, especially with recipes like this one.

Vegetable cooking spray
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-sodium, reduced-fat Swiss cheese
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (9-ounce) packages frozen French-style green beans, thawed and drained
1 1/2 cups herb-seasoned stuffing mix
2 teaspoons margarine, melted
1 egg white, lightly beaten

Directions:

Coat a medium saucepan with cooking spray and place over medium heat until hot. Add onion; sauté for 5 minutes or until tender. Add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add the milk, stirring until blended. Stir in cheese, sour cream, sugar and salt; cook for 5 minutes or until thickened and bubbly, stirring constantly. Place green beans in an 8-inch square baking dish; pour the sauce over beans. Combine stuffing mix, margarine and egg white in a bowl; stir well and sprinkle over green bean mixture. Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
