GLUTEN-FREE ONION TOPPING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Oil a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Mix flour, cornmeal, and salt together in a bowl. Toss onion in flour mixture until coated. Spread onion mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Drizzle remaining oil over onion.
• Bake in the preheated oven, tossing onions occasionally, until crisped and golden, about 30 minutes.

GLUTEN FREE FRIED ONION TOPPING (FOR GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475. Slice onions in half and then into 1/8 inch slices and toss in a bowl with the flours and salt. Generously grease a baking sheet with about half the oil and evenly spread the onions in the pan. Drizzle the rest of the oil evenly on top of the onions. Place in middle rack and bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Toss the onions 2 to 3 times during cooking. Keep a good eye on them towards the end, they can go from a little brown to burnt very fast, and you want to pull them out at the right time!
• Use just like the canned onions- Add half to your green bean casserole and put the other half on top, or according to your casserole recipe.

GLUTEN-FREE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE WITH FRIED ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Place onions and milk in medium bowl; let stand. In deep fryer or 4-quart Dutch oven, heat oil (2 inches) to 375°F.
• In resealable plastic food storage bag, mix Bisquick, salt and pepper until well mixed. Drain onions. Place onions in bag; shake to coat. Remove onions from bag shaking off excess. Gently place half of onions in oil; fry 2 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining onions. Let onions stand while preparing bean mixture.
• In ungreased 3-quart casserole, mix soup, soy sauce, pepper, cooked green beans and 1 1/2 cups of the onions. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly, adding remaining onions during last 5 minutes of baking.

KRISTI'S GLUTEN FREE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Melt 1/4 cup butter in med saucepan. Work in 1/4 cup rice flour, seasonings and cook until lightly browned (or until it gets a little dry).
• Add 2 1/2 cup milk and stir until thickened. It should be thin enough to pour, if it is too thick, add more milk. Leave heat on low. Keep stirring occasionally so that it doesn't clump up.
• In a cast iron pan, heat about 1/4 inch of oil. Add mushrooms and fry for about 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and you can smell mushroomy goodness.
• Remove mushrooms from fry pan and drain. Leave the oil in the pan, we'll need that later. Add drained mushrooms and about 3/4 cup cheese to your sauce and stir over low heat until fully incorporated.
• Add onions to the hot oil and fry for 4-5 minutes per batch. Don't get too excited or you'll crowd the pan and they'll never cook right. Remove to apparatus of your choice and allow to drain. Repeat until all onions are done. Repeat with jalapenos (they should be able to be done in one batch).
• Preheat your oven to 325°F.
• While you're waiting for those onions and jalapenos to finish, get out your cleaned and prepped fresh green beans. Arrange them in a 8x8 baking dish or other small casserole. Pour about 1 cup of the cheese sauce over the green beans. Add more if you like it really cheesy. Mix it in the best you can, it won't be perfect.
• On top of the green bean and sauce, scatter 1/2-1 cup of cheese. Scatter drained onions and jalapenos and green onions. Stick in oven and bake for approx 40 minutes. Pull out and let rest for 15-20 minutes.
• With the remaining cheese sauce, add whatever leftover cheese you might have and stash in the fridge for later. This is super good on veggies and noodles. I have long dark dreams about it sometimes.
