Healthy Green Bean Casserole

Rinse green beans, chop ends off and cut in half. Bring about 8 cups of water to a boil, & boil green beans for 8 minutes. Drain and sit aside. Over medium heat, begin sautéing the mushrooms and onion in the olive oil in a large skillet. Sauté for about 10 minutes or until onions are translucent. Stir in Ripple half and half (or regular), cheddar cheese, salt and pepper, and arrowroot or tapioca flour. Once mixture is combined and thickened, add your green beans. Let simmer for about 10 more minutes stirring occasionally. Transfer to a lightly greased casserole dish. For the topping, melt the butter in a small bowl, then mix in the chickpea or bread crumbs, salt + pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Crumble on top of the casserole evenly. Bake for 20 minutes at 350°F, then broil for about 3-4 minutes. Watch it carefully to ensure it doesn’t burn. Enjoy!
