VEGAN GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
Green bean casserole is a true fall comfort dish; its creamy sauce, tender green beans and crunchy onion topping will have everyone coming back for seconds. We substituted a few vegan ingredients, such as unsweetened almond milk and vegan sour cream, for an equally comforting side dish that all can enjoy. Assemble the entire casserole in a large oven-proof skillet for easy cooking and minimal cleanup.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and fill a large bowl with ice water.
- Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender and bright green, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well and transfer to the ice water to cool completely. Drain again and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; pat dry.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost all the excess moisture has cooked off and the mushrooms start to turn golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add the onion, garlic and thyme, then continue to cook, stirring, until tender, about 2 minutes.
- Pour 1/4 cup of the vegetable broth into the skillet. Cook, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer until broth is reduced by half, about 1 minute. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring, until completely absorbed, then add the remaining 1/2 cup vegetable broth, almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until thickened and saucy, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the vegan sour cream and soy sauce until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Stir the blanched green beans into the sauce, tossing until evenly coated, then spread into an even layer. Top evenly with the fried onions.
- Bake until golden brown and bubbling at the edges, about 15 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Beans:.
- Bring the water to boil in a large pot. While it's heating, cut up the beans. Add the salt and beans to the boiling water. Cover and cook for 6 minutes. Drain beans in a colander, and then spray for a minute with cold water to stop the cooking. Let them drain in the colander, shaking every now and then to get off all the water.
- Sauce.
- Trim and discard the mushroom stems and chop the mushrooms into pieces. Spray a non-stick pan with canola oil and heat it. Add the mushrooms, garlic, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Cook until mushrooms are very soft and exude their juices. Whisk the flour into the vegetable broth and add to the mushrooms along with the sherry. Simmer, stirring, until mixture thickens. Add the soy creamer and simmer until thick, about 5 to 10 minutes. Adjust the seasonings and stir in the beans.
- Topping.
- Put the bread, margarine, salt, and pepper into a food processor and pulse until crumbly. Pour into a bowl and add the onions. Stir to combine.
- To Assemble.
- Put the green beans into an oiled casserole dish and top with the onion mixture. Bake at 425 F for about 15 minutes. If you are not serving this right away, refrigerate the topping separately; bring to room temperature before sprinkling the topping on the casserole and baking for about 20 minutes or until hot throughout.

VEGAN GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
The classic Thanksgiving side dish becomes instantly more flavorful with the use of fresh green beans, shallots and mushrooms. This recipe is also vegan, owing to a quick, creamy sauce made with non-dairy milk and thickened with flour. You can save yourself the trouble of deep-frying onions by using store-bought French fried onions. They're usually vegan, but be sure to double check the ingredient label to be sure.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees and oil a 3-quart baking dish.
- Fill a large pot with water. Add 1 tablespoon salt to the water and bring to a boil. Add the green beans and boil for 4 minutes (or 3 minutes if you are using French beans). Drain the green beans and rinse them under cold running water. Give them a shake to remove excess water, then cut them into 2-inch pieces. Transfer the cut green beans to the baking dish.
- Heat the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released their juices and are reduced in size. Stir frequently to prevent the shallots from burning. Add the garlic and cook the mushrooms for another 3 minutes, stirring as you go.
- Place the flour in a small bowl and add 1/4 cup of the non-dairy milk. Whisk together to create a slurry.
- Pour the remaining 1 3/4 cups non-dairy milk into the skillet with the mushrooms. Stir in the slurry, 2 teaspoons kosher salt and the black pepper. Bring the liquid to a simmer and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Pour the mushroom sauce over the green beans and give it a gentle stir to coat. Top with the fried onions. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the onions turn a deep golden brown and the sauce is bubbling. Allow the casserole to cool for 15 minutes before serving.
VEGAN GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
This recipe is kind of a mix of ideas I got from several recipes and I love it! I made it for my family for Thanksgiving and they ate the entire dish. This is by far one of the simplest recipes you can find. And it's cheap and easy to make! Definately let this sit for a while after you take it out of the oven. It won't look done, but once it sits and cools, the sauce will thicken up, and it stays hot for a really long time.

Tips:
- Use fresh green beans. Fresh green beans have a better flavor and texture than canned or frozen beans. If you can't find fresh green beans, frozen beans are a good alternative.
- Don't overcook the green beans. Green beans should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked green beans are mushy and bland.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This recipe calls for green beans, onion, and celery, but you can add other vegetables that you like, such as carrots, peas, or corn.
- Make the sauce ahead of time. The sauce for this casserole can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it easy to assemble the casserole when you're ready to serve it.
- Top the casserole with crispy onions. Crispy onions add a delicious crunch and flavor to the casserole. You can make your own crispy onions or use store-bought.
Conclusion:
This vegan green bean casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's made with fresh green beans, a creamy vegan sauce, and a crispy onion topping. This casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
