MINIMALIST BAKER GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Add green beans and cook for 5 minutes, then drain and place in an ice water bath to stop cooking. Drain and set aside.
• Prepare the sauce in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add butter or olive oil and shallots and garlic. Season with salt and pepper and stir. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then add mushrooms and season with a bit more salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes more or until lightly browned.
• Sprinkle in flour and whisk to stir and coat the veggies. Cook for 1 minute, then slowly add in veggie stock, whisking to incorporate.
• Add almond milk and whisk to stir again. Season with a touch more salt and pepper and bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low to thicken. Cook for 5-7 minutes more, or until thick and bubbly. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
• Remove from heat and add 1/2 of the fried onions and all of the cooked green beans. Toss to coat well, and top with remaining fried onions.
• Bake in oven for 15 minutes or until warmed through, bubbly and slightly browned on top.
• Serve immediately (handle pan carefully).
