James' Magic Beans

For Easter we had a spiral cut ham, cheesy potatoes, cherry supreme salad, and these beans. Not a big spread, but everyone was full when we finished up. We did leave room for butterscotch pie.

The original recipe is called Grandma's Green Bean Casserole. Since I got this from my son, I decided to change the title. It was extra nice that James was there to make this for me for our Easter meal. They were GREAT!

James' Green Bean Casserole
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup onion, diced
1 cup sour cream
3- 14.5 oz cans French style green beans, drained
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup French's french fried onions

Preheat oven to 350*
1. Melt butter in a large skillet over med. heat. Stir in flour until smooth and cook for one minute. Stir in the salt, sugar, onion and sour cream. Next add the beans and stir gently to coat.
2. Pour mixture into a 2 1/2 qt casserole dish. Sprinkle cheese over the top, use more if you wish. Top with French's onions.
3. Bake for 30 minutes or until top is golden and cheese is bubbly.
