Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 pound green beans rinsed, trimmed and cut in half
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter *or olive oil
  • 1 onion finely diced
  • 1¼ cups mushrooms rinsed and sliced
  • 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup plant based milk soy, almond, oat
  • 3 ounces fried onions French's or Trader Joes work
  • 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast optional
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 175 C (350 F). Grease an 8x8 baking dish and set aside.
  • Simmer the green beans for 5 minutes over medium heat. Drain and set aside.
  • Saute the onions with the vegan butter for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and mushrooms and saute for a further 2-3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the onion and mushroom mixture with flour and toss to coat. Add the vegetable broth and whisk until the sauce begins to thicken.
  • Add the plant based milk and nutritional yeast and continue whisking until everything is well combined. Simmer for five minutes, or until the sauce is thick and bubbly. If you are making ahead, let cool and refrigerate.
  • Transfer the green beans to your baking dish and pour the sauce over the top. Toss to combine. Sprinkle the fried onions over the top and bake for 15 minutes.

Notes

  1.  If you're making dairy free green bean casserole ahead, be sure to refrigerate the casserole without the onions, and put them on before baking.
  2. To store leftovers - cover the top with foil and refrigerate for 3-5 days.
