Dairy-free Green Bean Casserole

I made an easy Dairy-free Green Bean Casserole that requires only a couple of steps and uses a crunchy grain-free cereal as the topping. This recipe can also be modified to be vegan to satisfy every gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan guest at your table.

Ingredients

1 ½ # fresh green beans
2 tbsp ghee or avocado oil
3 cups portobella mushrooms, finely chopped
1 medium yellow onion, small diced
3 large garlic cloves, minced
⅓ cup chicken stock
¾ cup cashew milk or another plant based milk
1 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tbsp + 1 tsp tapioca starch
1 ½ cup Lovebird Cereal or gluten-free breadcrumbs
¼ cup yellow onion, finely minced
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
salt and black pepper

Instructions

Preheat theoven to 350 degrees. Chop the green beans until they are bite size. Place them in boiling water or steam them until they are nearly all the way cooked but still slightly crunchy. Next, stop the cooking process by draining the beans and then placing them in an ice bath. Next, drain the green beans from the ice bath and place them in an 8x8 casserole dish.
Add the Lovebird cereal to a food processor (skip this step if using breadcrumbs) and process until the cereal is bread crumb like. Place in a bowl with the minced yellow onion, nutritinoal yeast, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
To make the sauce, saute the mushrooms and onions with the ghee (or avocado oil if vegan) in a large skillet until soft, abouit5 minutes. Next, add the minced garlic and saute for 1-2 additonal minutes. Add the coconut aminos and scrap the bottom of the pan releasing all the fond or food bits. Srinkle in the tapioca starch and stir for one minute. Lastly, add in the cashew milk and simmer for five minutes. The liquid needs to come to a simmer to allow the tapioca starch to thicken the sauce.Lastly, pour the mixture over the green beans and gently toss.
Sprinkle the cereal-onion mixture on top of the green beans and place in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the sides are bubbling. Remove from the oven and allow. to cool for 5-10 minutes before enjoying,
