Gluten Free, Dairy Free Green Bean Casserole


I LOVE Green Bean Casserole for the holidays but it's not necessarily the healthiest of dishes. Sure it's a vegetable but its laced with dairy and wheat; the two most common inflammatory foods that can make many people's health concerns worse. Despite being diary, wheat, sugar, or some other "comfort food" free, you can still enjoy tasty food.


Dr. Lexi's Green Bean Casserole


1 Bag of Family Sized fresh Green Beans, ends trimmed. Steam while preparing soup.


*Don't over cook. Steam for 5-10 mins or until bright green and then remove from heat and run old water over the green beans, blanching them a little.


2 Containers of Gluten Free Fried Onions.

* Try Sprouts or Queens non-coated fried onions
