Trimazing! Green Bean Casserole
This tastes just like the traditional but it's healthy! Green Bean Casserole was a staple for holiday meals when I was growing up, but I wanted a version without all the oil, dairy, and refined ingredients. Serve as a side dish or fill a piping hot baked sweet potato for a holiday-inspired meal!
