Notes
For extra flavor, try using crispy fried onions as a topping before baking. If you prefer a bit of heat, add some red pepper flakes to the sauce mixture. You can also substitute fresh green beans for canned ones, just make sure to blanch them first for tenderness. For a cheesy twist, sprinkle shredded cheese on top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
