Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
  3. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in the liquid from the green bean can and enough milk to make about 1 cup of liquid, ensuring no lumps form.
  5. Stir in the prepared yellow mustard, salt, and Tabasco sauce.
  6. Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  7. Add the undrained green beans to the saucepan and stir to combine.
  8. Pour the mixture into a greased 1.5-quart baking dish.
  9. Top evenly with buttered bread cubes.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
