Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound fresh green beans trimmed
  • 8 ounces mushrooms chopped
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or other neutral oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon beef Better Than Bouillon paste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • 1 6-ounce can french fried onions

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 350°F.
  2. Steam green beans until just tender; drain well.
  3. Brown mushrooms in oil over medium heat until moisture cooks off.
  4. Add butter, then flour; cook briefly. Whisk in milk and bouillon. Simmer until thick. Stir in black pepper.
  5. Combine green beans and sauce. Transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  6. Bake 30 minutes. Top with entire can of french fried onions and bake 5–10 minutes more, until golden.

Notes

  • To skip canned french fried onions, thinly slice a sweet onion, toss lightly with oil and a pinch of salt, and air fry at 375°F until golden and crisp, shaking halfway through. Watch closely at the end; they brown quickly.
