Quantity Ingredient
3 cups Milk
Bay leaf
4 tablespoons Unsalted butter

Make sauce: In a saucepan scald milk and bay leaf. In another saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, 2 minutes.

Remove bay leaf from milk and slowly pour into butterflour mixture, whisking constantly. Season to taste with mustard, nutmeg, salt and pepper.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add cheddar, stirring until melted and smooth.

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Fold green beans and mushrooms into sauce, then transfer to a buttered casserole. Sprinkle top with Parmesan and buttered bread crumbs. Bake 50 minutes, or until casserole is bubbly and topping is lightly browned.
