    Classic green bean casserole was one of my favorite dishes growing up. The creamy, savory, and hearty dish covered in those little fried onions was unforgettable. And, it was healthy right? I mean, it had green beans in it.

    Wrong! We all know there’s nothing healthy about it.

    But, what if you could make a green bean casserole from scratch that met all the requirements of the famous holiday dish and it was healthy too?

    Is it possible? YES, absolutely!

    Vegan Green Bean Casserole

    I’ve wanted to make a healthy version of green bean casserole for several years. But, could never come up with one that just worked and was “easy.”

    And, then it hit me. Why not just combine two or three of my previous recipes and make one incredible dish? So, I did.

    How To Make Green Bean Casserole Vegan

    It’s all about using what you got. So, instead of trying to reinvent the wheel that’s exactly what happened.

    First, I used my Vegan Cream of Mushroom Soup, my Tofu Sour Cream and three cans of low-sodium cut green beans. You could also use my Cashew Sour Cream as well. It works just fine. Just combine the sour cream, soup, green beans and bake for a few minutes. Super easy and delicious.

    Now, you could stop right there and this would be one fine green bean casserole. But, I wanted to take it up a notch!

    So, in order to take this thing super incredible I decided to top this bad boy with my Crunchy Oven Baked Onion Rings! Yes! Full-size onion rings.

    Not those wimpy ass fried shoestring things they sell at the grocery store.

    These onion rings are savory, crunchy, a little salty, and the size of manhole covers. The perfect topping for this amazing dish!

    Vegan Green Bean Casserole the way it should be. With onion rings!

    Personally, I prefer not to scarf down dead flesh and then have to deal with erectile dysfunction and heart disease at some point. Vegetables over viagra! But, hey, that’s just me.

      Great with my mainly vegan Thanksgiving for Hubby and his dad who is strongly not vegan. Also did made your creamed corn, your brown gravy, your cornbread (made on the weekend and frozen), and your incredible pumpkin pie! It was all a hit! Thanks Wizard Shane – oh, my Husband thinks you’re a wizard. Happy Thanksgiving weekend!

      I made this recently but used tater tots instead of onion rings as I’m allergic to onions. It was delicious!

      What would be the best flour of choice instead of wheat flour for the mushroom soup portion of this recipe? I know it says flour of your choice but I thought perhaps you tried other flowers that you know work best.

        Really any will work. Chickpea and oat flour are really good.

      Do you think that this would work with frozen green beans rather than canned? It looks delicious!

        Absolutely! You would either need to let them thaw or cook a little longer. But should work just fine! Good luck and hope you enjoy it!!!

      Looks great. Someday I’d love to see a recipe blog post with just a single picture and the recipe, instead of the useless never-ending paragraphs of text that’s only there for the keywords and Google SEO.

        I use the app Copy Me That. It saves only th recipe, but still gives credit to the recipe owner/writer. You can also build your shopping list from the app.
