Ingredients:

• 1 pound green beans
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 pound cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 1 onion, diced

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9×13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.

3. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water; set aside.

5. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and stir in cornstarch mixture until thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in green beans.
