Method
- Heat the oven to 375F. Trim the green beans and cut them in half. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the beans, and cook 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Set aside.
- Slice the shallots into thin rings and toss them with the all purpose flour. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the shallots in two batches, stirring often, 5 to 7 minutes per batch, until golden and crisp. Move them to a paper towel and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Do not walk away; they go from golden to burnt in under a minute.
- Wipe out the skillet. Melt the butter over medium-high heat. Slice the mushrooms and add them with a pinch of salt. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until they release their liquid and it cooks off and they brown.
- Add the minced garlic and thyme and cook 1 minute. Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the mushrooms and stir for 1 minute so the raw flour taste cooks out.
- Pour in the broth a little at a time, stirring so no lumps form, then the milk. Simmer 3 to 4 minutes, stirring, until the sauce coats a spoon. Turn off the heat.
- Stir in the Parmesan, then the Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper. Taste; it should be well seasoned because the beans dilute it.
- Fold the green beans into the sauce and spread everything in a 9x13 baking dish. Bake uncovered 20 minutes, until bubbling at the edges.
- Scatter the crispy shallots over the top and bake 5 minutes more. Let it rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
The shallots can be fried a day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature. Add them just before the final 5 minutes so they stay crisp. Nutrition is calculated per serving from the listed ingredients and may vary with brands and substitutions.
