Cheesy Green Bean Casserole Recipe - Best Ever Easy Low Carb, Keto & Gluten Free Vegetarian Side Dish

Cheesy Green Bean Casserole

This cheesy green bean casserole is my best way to enjoy green beans when they are in season. This is an easy comfort food meal, that will please the whole family. (And, here are even more easy keto comfort food recipes for you.)

At the moment they are just 49 cents a bag, so I couldn’t resist turning a couple of bags into a dreamy, cheesy side dish.

I find that giving the beans a quick fry helps to soften them before cooking in the oven. I like to fry mine with onion and garlic, but you could add in mushrooms, leek or other vegetables too, if you like.

Frying green beans, onion and garlic

You can use as little or as much onion and garlic as you like when frying, depending on your tastes and how many carbs you want to allocate to your casserole.

Cream and sour cream makes the perfect creamy sauce for the beans, you can go with those two ingredients, or you could swap in from the following:

  • Cream Cheese
  • Mayonnaise
  • Mascarpone Cheese
  • Milk
Cheese topped green beans

For the cheese, you can go for one, two or more cheese varieties, here are some cheese choices to choose from:

  • Mozzarella
  • Cheddar
  • Parmesan
  • Blue Cheese
Fork with green beans and cheese
