Dairy Free Green Bean Casserole

Nov 11, 2023

Dairy Free Green Bean Casserole

This casserole tastes just like the classic green bean casserole you grew up with, but without the dairy! You can easily make your own fried onions on top without frying them, or use bread crumbs. I just like the nostalgia of the package fried onions (and it’s my kids favorite part).

Optional prep work (to make Thanksgiving morning go more smoothly): Chop one onion and an 8oz box of mushrooms. You can stop there or go ahead and make the cream of mushroom soup beforehand and add it to the green beans. Then on Thanksgiving morning, add the topping and bake.

Ingredients

4 14.5 oz cans of green beans

1 onion (diced)

1 8 oz box of mushrooms (diced)

3 cups unsweetened plant milk (can sub veggie broth if you don’t have bouillon cubes or paste)

3 teaspoons veggie better than bouillon veggie paste (bullion cubes work too)

1 teaspoon dried thyme

¼ cup of cornstarch

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional topping: 1/2 package of fried onions (or you can use bread crumbs for oil free version)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

2. Open cans of green beans, rinse, and drain. Place in a 9x13 pan. Set aside.

3. Make the cream of mushroom soup by water sautéing the onions and mushrooms. Once the onions are translucent, add 3 cups unsweetened plant milk, 3 tablespoons veggie bullion paste, and 1 teaspoon thyme. Set aside some of the liquid and mix it with1/4 cup of cornstarch, then add it back to the pan. Cook until mixture thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Place the cream of mushroom soup over the green beans in the mix. Mix well.

5. Top with fried onions or bread crumbs.

6. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the topping is browned.
