Luscious Mushroom Green Bean
Vegetarian Main
Do to taste and per # of people.
Saute
in olive oil & butter:
onion chopped
mushrooms sliced (Portobello is very
tasty)
Meanwhile
cook
green beans (in mw or steamer)
Combine
the above then add to make a bit of a sauce (not too much liquid though)
a bit of seasoned salt if required
black pepper
bit of flour (for thickening)
half and half (milk will not be as
luscious but should work too) (don't use a huge amount)
Simmer
gently just until flour is cooked, a couple minutes maybe. Don't let it boil a
lot and therefore curdle.
Serve
over
a grain (for a fancy meal do baked puff
pastry!)
Top
with
roasted salted cashews
grated Parmesan

Cashew, and Mushroom Casserole in the Volume 8 of Woman's Day Encyclopedia of
