I know everyone is not a fan of the classic green bean casserole and has their favorite side dish. For this recipe, I used fresh green beans, not canned, and homemade cream of mushroom. Talk about budget-friendly ingredients that will complete your Thanksgiving feast.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Fresh green beans

Dairy-free cream of mushroom

  • 4 oz Bella mushroom (chopped)
  • 1 tbsp Mushroom seasoning
  • 2 tbsp Minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp Whole wheat flour
  • Up to 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 cube Vegetable cube
  • 1/2 Red onion (chopped)
  • 1 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)

Topping

  • Crispy fried onion

Instructions
 

Green Beans

  • Cut the ends of the green beans and cut them in half
  • Bring water to a boil (add a pinch of salt). Once boiling, add the green beans and cook for about 5-6 minutes.
  • Prepare an ice bath for the green beans (this stops the green beans from overcooking).
  • Drain and set aside (until ready to add to the cream of mushroom).

Dairy-free Cream of Mushroom

  • In a saucepan, saute the mushroom, and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the onions and garlic, and cook for another minute.
  • Add the whole wheat flour, slowly pour the almond milk, and mix.
  • In a cup, mix the water and vegetable broth, and slowly pour that into the mixture.
  • Cover and bring to a simmer.
  • At this point, taste the sauce, and add mushroom seasoning (if not available, use salt, if needed).
  • Pre-heat oven to 350F
  • In a baking dish, pour in the green bean mixture.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Once done, top with crispy onion.
  • Enjoy!
