Squash and Green Bean Casserole - Allergy Free CookBook

A fresh from the garden vegetable dish. Timing is essential. Know how long it takes to pick, wash, slice, and bake before you start the meal. If I pick the green beans and squash at 2 pm, this dish can be in the oven about 3 pm. There may be more green beans and squash left to wash and freeze while the food cooks. Dragon beans are a good substitute for green beans. Zucchini and yellow squash work well. Canned green beans work with frozen, sliced squash. It's not as good as fresh sliced green beans that were growing an hour before.
