Gluten-Free Green Bean Casserole (GAPS, Paleo)

gluten-free-green-bean-casserole

With Thanksgiving approaching, I know the GAPS diet can seem daunting. You’re left with the choice of either watching on in envy as others enjoy yummy foods, or wrecking your progress and indulging in foods that disagree with both your body and your health goals. But there is another way! Not only can you enjoy your favorite holiday foods, but you can stick with GAPS diet foods too! Below, I’ll share my gluten free green bean casserole, plus show you the secret weapon to enjoying the holidays on GAPS.

Note from Cara: This recipe is from Nourishing Holiday, a beautiful e-book to get you through all the holiday feasts without compromising health or taste.  Check it out here!

Problematic ingredients

Let’s take a look at some of the ingredients that are found in the typical holiday casserole: canned cream of mushroom soup, canned vegetables, and canned crispy onions. Basically, no real or fresh food, but lots of pseudo-foods and problematic ingredients.

Canned cream of mushroom soup contains:

  • oil (corn, cottonseed, canola, or soybean)
  • modified food starch
  • wheat
  • monosodium glutamate (MSG)
  • dehydrated cream
  • plus more msg and other flavorings

(That’s why I created a GAPS-friendly cream of mushroom soup recipe, which you can find here.)

Canned vegetables often contain additives and are sold in cans that contain BPA or other toxins.

The typical can of crispy onions contains:

  • oil
  • wheat
  • soy
  • corn… oh yeah, and onions.

It turns out you can make a delicious gluten free green bean casserole with nourishing, GAPS-friendly ingredients that your family will love. I recently created such a recipe and included it in my new digital holiday cookbook, Nourishing Holiday, which is designed just for the GAPS diet. No one should have to forgo holiday celebrations just because they choose to nourish their body!

I’ll share my gluten free green bean casserole below, but first, I want to tell you what you’ll find in Nourishing Holiday.

I’ve created over 50 grain-free, gut-healing recipes for every celebration. You’ll find the turkey and the ham, of course, as well as perfect turkey gravy, grain-free dinner rolls, and cakes, pies, and cookies galore. You really can have your (grain-free) cake and eat it too! Grab it for 50% off for a limited time here.

And without further ado, here’s the recipe you’ve been waiting for. Cheers to a healthy holiday!

    Hi! The link to your mushroom soup is no longer working. I’m on the GAPS diet and would love to make this recipe for Thanksgiving. Would you be able to fix it?
