Ingredients

For baked “fried” onions
1 large onion
1/2 cup (62 g) of all-purpose flour
3/4 cup (45 g) of Panko breadcrumbs
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 large egg
1 tbsp (15 mL) of milk
For green bean casserole
1 lbs (450 g) of fresh green beans, rinsed, trimmed and halved
2 tbsp (30 g) of unsalted butter
8 oz (225 g) of mushrooms, sliced into halves
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp (30 g) of all-purpose flour
2 cups (500 mL), prepared Plant-Based, No-Chicken Gravy Mix
Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Preheat oven to 475°F.
Pour flour in one small bowl, and Panko into a medium bowl. Whisk egg and milk together in another small bowl. Bread the onion slices.
Place onto lined baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Flip them twice during this time. Set them aside.
Reduce oven to 400°F.
Blanch beans in salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and place into bowl of ice water to stop cooking process. Drain and set aside.
Over medium-high heat, melt butter in a large 12 inch ovenproof skillet. Add mushrooms, salt and pepper. Cook until mushrooms begin to give off some of their moisture – about 5 minutes.
Add garlic, stir, and cook for another 2 minutes. Sprinkle the flour on top and stir until combined.
Add No-Chicken Gravy and simmer for 3 minutes. Decrease heat to medium-low and keep stirring for an additional 3 minutes.
Remove from heat. Add 1/4 of the onions and all of the green beans. Stir, combining sauce and beans. Top with remaining onions and bake until bubbly, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from the oven and enjoy!
