Traditional green bean casserole is a tasty baked combination of cream of mushroom soup and green beans, topped with fried onion strings. While it's vegetable-forward in theory, it's not viable for keto dieters—typically containing 20 net carbs per serving from the mushroom soup and onion strings alone.

Our version has all the flavors you love from this holiday must-have, while keeping it gluten and grain-free, low-carb, sugar-free, and keto-friendly all at the same time. Fresh green beans, which only contain 2 net carbs per serving, are used along with a hearty amount of cream cheese and parmesan for richness. The sauce gets its rich texture from chicken broth, which is most wonderful made fresh, but boxed or canned will work as well.
