Green Bean Casserole

For many of our Trim Healthy Mamas, one of their favorite Holiday traditions is enjoying Grandma’s Green Bean Casserole. One of the great things about THM is that we don’t 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. You’re 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!

Ingredients
    Main Ingredients:
  • 60 oz green beans (may use frozen or fresh, but must be cooked before proceeding)
  • 4 oz mushrooms (canned) (chopped small)
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
    • Mayo Mixture:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp TH Mineral Salt
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
    • Topping:
  • 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (green can is fine)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 pinch TH Mineral Salt (a few pinches)
  • 1 pinch black pepper (a few pinches)
  • 1 onions (a few thinly sliced onion rounds)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Mix green beans, mushrooms and shredded cheese into a 9x13 pan.
  2. 2
    In a small bowl, mix up the mayo mixture and pour into the bean mixture, stirring gently to coat.
  3. 3
    Top with topping mixture, but do not stir in together.
  4. 4
    Place a few thinly sliced onion rounds on the top.
  5. 5
    Bake at 350 until bubbly and topping starts to brown. As all ovens are different, this could take anywhere from 15 to 25 minutes.
Note

*Note: Fresh or frozen green beans can be used, but you will want to cook them first, before adding to the casserole.
