4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

½ pound processed American cheese, cubed

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, and stir in flour to form a thick paste.

Continue stirring until cheese is melted.
Place 1/2 the beans in a medium baking dish. Layer with 1/2 the processed cheese mixture and remaining beans. Top with remaining processed cheese mixture.
Melt remaining butter in a small saucepan, and mix in bread crumbs. Top the bean and processed cheese layers with the bread crumb mixture.
