Ingredients

 4 cups string beans, about 1 pound, chopped into 3/4 inch pieces
 Onions1/2 Cup (16 tbs), minced
 Whole wheat flour2 Tablespoon
 Salt1/2 Teaspoon
 Yogurt1 Cup (16 tbs)
 1 heaping tsp honey
 2 cups grated swiss cheese
 Sesame seeds1 1/4 Cup (16 tbs), toasted
 Butter

Directions

Steam the string beans for about 3 minutes in a small amount of water. They should just begin to get tender. Drain them immediately (and put the stock into your refrigerator stock pot).
Combine the beans, minced onions, whole wheat flour, and salt. Stir well so that the flour coats the vegetables. Stir in the yogurt and honey.
Turn the mixture into an oiled 2-quart casserole. The deeper and narrower the casserole, the gooier will be the topping crust. The only thing I don't recommend is a shallow baking dish.
Cover the bean mixture with the grated cheese; then spread the sesame meal over the cheese and dot with butter.
Bake at 325°F for about 25-30 minutes.
