This Healthy Vegan Green Bean Casserole is another one of my delicious Christmas side dish recipes that the whole family will love this year. You will be surprised at how creamy this delicious mushroom sauce is – you will hardly believe that it is vegan.
Start by making my creamy mushroom sauce. Assemble the casserole from the green beans and mushroom sauce. Bake until hot, bubbling and the green beans are soft. While the casserole is in the oven, prepare the topping by heating olive oil and cooking onion until soft and brown. Add the panko bread crumbs to the pan and leave to brown. Once the beans are soft, mix them around and pour the topping over the casserole. Serve immediately.
To make my Healthy Vegan Green Bean Casserole, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1½ pounds of sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally for about 15 minutes until soft and brown.
Add a scoop of the cooked mushrooms to a blender or food processor with 1 cup of soaked cashews, 1 minced garlic clove, sea salt, pepper, and 1½ cups of water. Blend on high until smooth.
Return the sauce into the pan with the remaining mushrooms. Bring the sauce to a boil before removing from the heat.
Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
Spoon enough mushroom sauce into the bottom of an 11x9-inch casserole dish to cover it with a thin layer of the mushroom sauce.
Place half the green beans in the casserole dish and add half of the remaining mushroom sauce. Repeat until you have used all the green beans and the sauce.
Pour ½ a cup of water over the top before sealing tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake the green bean casserole in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until hot, bubbling and the green beans are soft.
In a large frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add a thinly sliced onion and cook for about 8-10 minutes until it is soft and brown. Add the panko bread crumbs to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes until brown.
Mix the cooked green beans with the sauce. Pour the topping over the casserole and serve immediately.

Amazing! I made this for Christmas, and my fam loved it. I was so proud serving a vegan dish that pleased everyone. The creamy mushroom sauce is just unreal, tasted like the real deal.

I made this green bean casserole for Christmas dinner, and it was a hit. Super creamy and no one even noticed it was vegan. I used fresh green beans from the farmer's market, and they really made it pop. A lil' time-consuming, but def worth it. Gonna keep this in my holiday rotation for sure.
Deliciously creamy goodness!
Deliciosa! Hice esta cazuela para la cena de Navidad y todos quedaron encantados. La salsa es tan cremosa que no parece vegana. Definitivamente se convertirá en un clásico en mi hogar.

I made this Healthy Vegan Green Bean Casserole for our Christmas dinner, and it was a hit! My husband, who usually isn’t a fan of vegan dishes, couldn’t believe how creamy the mushroom sauce was. It reminded me of the ones my mom used to make, but healthier. So thankful for this recipe.
