I have a confession to make. I've never been a fan of the green bean casserole that's so popular at Thanksgiving.
Ingredients
- 1 (15 count) package frozen mini fillo shells, thawed
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 3/4-1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chopped frozen green beans (thaw before chopping)
- 1/8 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Pinch of onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup French fried onions

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange mini fillo shells on a baking sheet.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and cook and stir for a few minutes more.
- Add 3/4 cup heavy cream to the skillet, stirring until smooth. Stir in chopped green beans. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and smooth.
- If needed, add up to 1/4 cup more cream until sauce reaches desired consistency. Stir in onion powder, and salt and pepper, to taste.
- Spoon a generous tablespoon of the green bean mixture into each fillo shell. Top with French fried onions. Bake for 4-6 minutes, or until onions are golden brown. Serve warm.
