Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a shallow, 3-qt. baking dish (such as 9x13-inch) with non-stick cooking spray. Place beans evenly in baking dish; sprinkle with 1 1/3 cups onions. Set aside.
Meanwhile, whisk together broth, milk, flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried sage, rosemary and thyme in a medium saucepan until no lumps appear. Cook about 6 minutes over medium-high heat, whisking constantly, until thickened. Pour over beans and onions.
Bake 25 minutes or until the bean mixture is hot and bubbling. Stir and sprinkle with the remaining onions. Bake 5 minutes or until the onions are golden brown.
VARIATION: For Green Bean Mushroom Casserole, prepare as recipe directs, except: Before preparing the sauce in Step 2, drain 1 can (8 oz.) Del Monte® Mushroom Stems and Pieces and pat very dry with paper towels. Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in the saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook about 8 minutes until golden brown in areas. Leave the mushrooms in the pan and proceed as directed.
