what you need
- 4 tablespoons of butter [or margarine]
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 can (14.5 ounce) condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 10 ounces of milk
- 2 cans (14 ounce each) quartered artichoke hearts
- 14.5 ounces French style green beans
- Bread crumbs - topping
- Butter - topping
make it
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Over medium heat, melt butter and saute garlic "lightly" until the aroma fills the air. HINT: Be careful - garlic turns tough and bitter when overcooked. Add soup, cheese, and bread crumbs. Reduce heat, blend and let bubble. Slowly add milk and return to a simmer. Turn off heat and carefully fold in quartered artichoke hearts and green beans.
2. Pour this mixture into a casserole dish. Top with a thin layer of bread crumbs and a few pats of butter, to help brown and crisp the topping as it bakes.
3. Cover and bake for 30 minutes - or until bubbly and golden brown.
