Green Bean Casserole (S)
For many of our Trim Healthy Mamas, one of their favorite Holiday traditions is enjoying Grandmaís Green Bean Casserole. One of the great things about THM is that we donít have to give up our favorite recipes during the holidays – we might just have to tweak them a little bit! This recipe is simple and easy. Youíre not going to miss using that red and white labeled canned soup either, because the flavor in this Green Bean Casserole is just as good – but so much healthier for you!
