Cheesy Green Bean Casserole
Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Medium White Onion, diced
- 2 Tbsp. All Purpose Flour
- 1/2 C. Skim Milk
- 1 C. Non-Fat Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1 C. Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided
- 1/2 tsp. Salt
- 1/2 tsp. Black Pepper
- 1 Lb. Green Beans, ends trimmed and cut in half
- 1/2 C. Whole Wheat Panko Bread Crumbs
- 1/2 C. Parmesan Cheese, grated
- 1 Tbsp. Butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan with olive oil non-stick spray and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture until combined. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in the milk, then add the Greek yogurt and 1/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the mixture has thickened to gravy consistency. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Add the green beans and cook until tender but still crisp and green, about 5 minutes. Drain immediately then shock in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain again and pat dry.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan and melted butter until panko is evenly coated in butter. Set aside.
- In a large bowl combine the onion mixture with the green beans, tossing to coat. Spread evenly in the prepared baking pan.* Top with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and the panko breadcrumb mixture. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Notes
* At this point you can cover and refrigerate the unbaked, un-topped casserole for up to 2 days.
