Ingredients
- 1 lb green beans trimmed like they’re going to brunch
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 vegan sausages chopped (about 1½ cups)
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp arrowroot powder
- ¼ cup nutritional yeast cheesy, dairy-free dreams
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp thyme
- ½ cup crispy vegan onions because extra crunch = extra fun
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Light a candle and pretend you’ve got your life together.
- Blanch green beans for 3–4 minutes. Shock them in ice water like they owe you money.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet. Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant and golden—don’t burn your feelings.
- Add vegan sausage and cook for 5 minutes until lightly crisp and full of attitude.
- In a bowl, whisk almond milk, arrowroot, nutritional yeast, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy-ish.
- Pour the mixture into the skillet. Stir constantly until it thickens like good gossip.
- Toss in the green beans and mix until coated and fabulous.
- Transfer to a greased baking dish. Smooth the top like it’s a skincare ad.
- Top with crispy onions. Be generous—it’s the crunchy crown.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes until bubbling and golden. Let it sit for 5 minutes (or burn your tongue, we won’t judge).
