Green Bean Casserole
Bread crumbs with tender, sweet onion top this casserole instead of the traditional high-fat fried onion rings. Pimiento adds delightful color and flavor.
Ingredients:
* 2 9-ounce packages frozen French-style green beans
* 1/3 cup chopped onion
* 2 teaspoons margarine
* 3 tablespoons fine dry bread crumbs
* 1 10-3/4-ounce can lower-sodium condensed cream of mushroom soup
* 1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
* 2 tablespoons diced pimento
* 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Cook the green beans according to the package directions, except omit salt. Drain well.
2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan cook the onion in margarine until onion is tender. Stir in the bread crumbs; set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl stir together the soup, yogurt, pimiento, and pepper. Stir in the beans. Transfer mixture to a 1-quart casserole. Sprinkle bread crumb mixture atop beans in casserole.
4. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until the mixture is heated through and the crumbs are golden. If desired, garnish with additional pimiento pieces. Makes 5 side-dish servings.
