Are mashed potatoes a must-have on Thanksgiving? If so, consider making them a little healthier with cauliflower instead of potatoes!

Instead of grabbing the Campbell's french fried onions and canned mushroom soup, opt for this yummy green bean casserole recipe instead! This low carb Supreme Green Bean Casserole is everything the other one wishes it was: rich, creamy, flavorful and made from wholesome ingredients – oh and it’s keto & gluten-free too!
