Thanksgiving sides can be filled with hidden gluten – including things that might seem safe like Green Bean Casserole. But with a few substitutions you can make this Thanksgiving favorite gluten free and dairy free! Depending on your choice of mushroom soup this can also be much lower in calories than the original.
GF DF Green Bean Casserole Recipe:
1 can green beans (large)
Aldi’s LiveGFree French Fried Onions(for topping)
1.5-2 cups mushroom soup – I used the Mushroom and Steel Cut Oats soup from Splendid Spoon but you could also use Imagine brand Portobello Mushroom soup(both are vegan) or if you’re fine with dairy you can use the Pacific brand Cream of Mushroom Soup
- First heat up the soup in a saucepan over low heat.
- Drain can of green beans and add to soup
- Cook her low heat 5-10 minutes, stirring
- Transfer to casserole dish and top with french fried onions
- Bake 350 degrees for 5-10 minutes until onions are browned
The Mushroom and Steel Cut Oats soup only has 97 calories per serving (about half the calories of regular Cream of Mushroom soup once you add in the milk) which means you can be extra generous with the French Fried Onions 🙂
(The Aldi’s French Fried Onions are a seasonal item so stock up to use them in salads, meatloaf, casseroles and more!)
