Thanksgiving Recipes-Tyler Florence Not Green Bean Caserole

4 cups fresh green beans, cleaned
4 slices thick cut bacon/diced (or pancetta)
2 cups sliced mushrooms (button or portabella)
2 cloves garlic (I used jarred minced)
2tbsp butter
1/2 cup sour cream
Salt & Pepper to taste
slivered almonds or canned fried onions to top

Blanch the green beans in a separate pot. (boiling water, salted, for about 5-8 minutes). Dice the bacon/pancetta and cook until some of the fat renders, add the garlic, mushrooms, butter and let cook for about 10 minutes until the mushrooms are dark brown and bacon is crisp. Add sour cream and melt in pan, add green beans and toss to coat with sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste. Top with slivered almonds or crush a few tbsp of the canned fried onions and top with that (the onions are 3g carbs per 2 tbsp).

I did not add his topping, I bought canned fried onions (3g carb per 2 tbsp) but ended up putting some slivered almonds on top which was excellent.
