GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE TARTLETS

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

• Cut each sheet into 30 2-inch squares, ending with a total of 60 squares (a pizza cutter works great for this).
• Lightly score each square about 1/8 inch around the edges and prick liberally with a fork. This will keep the pastry from puffing up too much during cooking.

• Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.
• Add onions to pan and cook for 2 minutes, or until onions are translucent.

• Take pastry squares out of refrigerator and top each one with a small spoonful of the green bean mixture and shredded cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes, remove from the oven. Top each square with a few French fried onions. Return to the oven and continue cooking for an additional 6-8 minutes, until the pastry is puffed and golden. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
