Green beans sour cream and swiss cheese?

Call me curious. I can’t even wrap my head around this one. I think maybe it is a casserole? I have never had anything like this, even more shocked to find it in a Savannah cookbook (my home town). I am not sure what to think about this one, so of course I have to try it.

This dish is from the vintage cookbook Recipes St. John’s Church, Savannah, Georgia.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Qt green beans (that seems like a lot of green beans)
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 Tbsp grated onion
  • 1 C sour cream
  • 1/2 pd Swiss cheese, grated – save a little to put on top.

Cook until it bubbles. Can be made day before serving.

Those are the only directions. My guess would be in a casserole dish at 350 degrees. I would think they should be served warm.

This cookbook or other cookbooks similar to this one can be found for sale in my Etsy store at https://www.etsy.com/shop/MurphyCaseySavannah .
