Instructions
  1. Boil a large pot of water, when boiling add green beans and blanch for 2 minutes (or 6-8 minutes if you like them softer). Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop them from cooking.
  2. Meanwhile make the topping, heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low, add breadcrumbs, grated cheese and thyme; saute until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, careful not to burn.
  4. Preheat the oven to 375 degree F. Lightly spray a 13 x 9 inch baking dish.
  5. Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute 1 to 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and saute 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Sprinkle flour over the mushroom, stir constantly for about a minute, then slowly add chicken stock, then milk.
  7. Bring to a low boil, and cook stirring occasionally until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
  8. Add blanched green beans and mix well, season with salt and pepper as needed; pour into prepared baking dish.
  9. Top with toasted bread crumbs and bake about 30 minutes.
  10. Serve and enjoy!
