-
Preheat oven to 350&# 194;°F (175ðC).
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a roux.

Gradually whisk in the liquid from the green bean can and enough milk to make about 1 cup of liquid, ensuring no lumps form.

Stir in the prepared yellow mustard, salt, and Tabasco sauce.
-
Simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
-
Add the undrained green beans to the saucepan and stir to combine.
-
Pour the mixture into a greased 1.5-quart baking dish.
-
Top evenly with buttered bread cubes.
-
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
