One of my favorite side dishes at Thanksgiving has to be the green bean casserole. But, even though you are eating green beans, a green bean casserole will pack on the calories. All of the cream of mushroom soup with milk and the fried onions, make this one side dish that will make your sides bigger! If you can’t live without your green bean casserole on Thanksgiving, then make sure to have a single serving of it only or you can try this healthy alternative instead.

 Ingredients:

Fresh Green Beans

Fresh Mushrooms, sliced

Garlic cloves

Shallot, minced

Extra virgin olive oil

Salt and Pepper - to taste

Saute the green beans, mushrooms, and shallot in some extra virgin olive oil. Make sure not to use  more than what you need to saute the vegetables and have a light coating on them. Once those ingredients have sauteed for a couple of minutes, add the fresh garlic cloves in. Make sure not to burn the garlic. The vegetables should still have a slight crunch to them and the green beans should still have their bright color. Add some salt and pepper to taste and this healthy side dish is done.
