AH! I think it is time for a troll-b-que. Anybody have any ideas for a
christmas/holiday meal? A friend of mine sent me his recipe for green
bean casserole, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. I can't have
the "traditional" green bean casserole made w/cream of mushroom soup
because I am allergic to cow's milk, so this looked good to me. I can
substitute sheeps milk romano for the parmesan.  Here it is!

Green Bean Cesar

1 pkg of frozen French Style Green Beans
3 Tbsp Italian Dressing
1 Tbsp Dried Onion Flakes
1 Tbsp Butter or Margarine
3 Tbsp Unseasoned Bread Crumbs
3 Tbsp Parmesian Cheese (or whatever type of hard cheese you want)

Thaw the green beans in a collander under running cold water and set
aside.  In a bowl mix the Italian Dressing and onion flakes together.
Then toss in the green beans and toss to season the beans...try and
get them evenly coated (as much as possible).

In a small pan melt the butter/margarine and add the crumbs and grated
cheese and mix until it becomes crumbly.

In a ovensafe dish put the greenbeans and seasoning from the bowl and
top with the crumbly mixture.  If you don't have enough, just make
some more.  You want to have the top fairly well covered.

Heat your oven to 350, and place in oven for 20-25 minutes until
heated through.

Pull them out and shove them in your face!

Enjoy!

I've decided on a barley casserole instead of potato or
rice, this year. It's easy - and different, because most
people don't think of barley except as an ingredient for
soup.  Simply saute sliced mushrooms, onion and celery in
butter or margarine, put in casserole with 1 cup of pearl
barley and 1 cup of broth (meat, chicken or vegetable), bake
in 350F degree oven for half an hour, add an additional
cupful of broth and continue baking for another half hour,
or until liquid is absorbed. (Salt and pepper to taste, of
course.) I may do the first stage of the cooking in the
microwave (as I do to shorten the cooking time for baked
potatos) - if so, I'll let you know how it turns out.  This
recipe serves four, BTW, but it's easy enough to double or
triple.  (Slivered or sliced almonds sprinkled on top to
toast add a festive touch, but it's plenty good as-is.)

this is excellent with broccoli or cauliflower also.  I sometimes substitute
a package of brown mushroom gravy and a can of mushrooms for the soup and
cows milk in the traditional recipe... but I do weight watchers and recently
looked at the onions and their points, total freak out won't be eating that
again EVER if I can help it, Lee... looking for the pumpkin fluff recipe and
not finding it... GGGRRR
