The Diaper Derby and a new Recipe

Today was the Diaper Derby at the fair...Chelsea and Brant entered Bryden because he is a fast crawler!!
This is Brant with Bryden and Becca, his mom and Bryden's other grandmother " "Mimi".Chelsea coaching Bryden...

But, alas, he was a non challant loser.
This is a new green bean cassarole that I made up.  I took 2 Tbs butter and melted it with 3 cloves of garlic.
Then I added 1/4 cup of white wine and let it reduce for 10 minutes, and added a half cup of heavy cream...
I cleaned and cut the beans, salt & peppered them and poured the sauce over....and made a crunchy topping of panko, 2 Tbs melted butter, parmesan cheese and crunched french fried onions. I baked it in a 350* oven for 45 minutes, and it smelled so good!!!  We loved it. If you try it, I hope you like it!!

I have a question...do you add the beans in the pan with the garlic and wine and saute for a bit or do you pour the garlic butter wine over the beans before you bake it? :)

Hope, I forgot to add a half cup of heavy cream to the sauce recipe, so I have edited it. The sauce is poured over the uncooked beans and then the topping is added before baking. Thanks for your comment!!
