    A classic green bean side dish baked with a flourless cheese sauce made into a low carb recipe.

    The traditional green bean casserole seems to be made with a tin of mushroom soup, but not in my house.  No tins of soup in my cupboards...heaven forbid! 

    So I thought I would have a play with this dish without the soup and keep it low carb, gluten free and tasty.   The result was a heavenly dish which I could easily eat by itself rather than a side dish!  I will warn you...this is moreish, and you will wonder how on earth you managed to eat a whole dish of green beans to yourself...or perhaps that was just me!!

    Instead of making a soup or sauce I used cream cheese.  It melts as a sauce and you could alway add mushrooms or even bacon to this dish if you wanted.
