I have a couple green bean casserole recipes from the net . . . . .

A Dana Carpenter Recipe . . . .

Cauliflower-Green Bean Casserole

2 1-pound bags frozen cauliflower
1 cup green beans
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup butter
1/4 small yellow or white onion, finely sliced
1 cup freshly cooked, crumbled bacon
1 cup shredded mixture Mozzarella and Cheddar cheeses

Cook and drain cauliflower and green beans. Pour into large casserole dish and stir in mayo, butter, onion, and bacon, mixing thoroughly. Put the cheese on top and bake at 300 deg. for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Makes 8 servings.

I like the second one but it does not tell how many it serves. If it serves 8 it's almost 5 carbs per serving. If it serves 6 it's almost 6 carbs per serving. I can't see it serving less than 6 (without subtracting the fiber)
