- 1 lb green beans ends trimmed and ready to party
- 2 cups mushrooms sliced like a pro (baby bella preferred)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp arrowroot powder thickens without the drama
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp thyme because we’re fancy
- ½ cup vegan fried onions store-bought or air-fried by your inner overachiever
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and judge the oven grime just a little.
Blanch green beans for 4 minutes, then drop into ice water like it’s a spa day.
Heat olive oil in skillet. Sauté onions and garlic until soft enough to spill secrets.
Add mushrooms. Cook 7–8 minutes until golden and slightly dramatic in aroma.
In a bowl, whisk almond milk, arrowroot, mustard, salt, pepper, and thyme. No lumps allowed.
Pour the mixture into the skillet. Stir constantly until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Add blanched green beans and toss gently. They deserve to feel loved.
Transfer to a baking dish. Top with crispy onions like you mean it.
Bake for 30–35 minutes until bubbly and golden—just like your personality.
Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving, or don't and burn your tongue. We’ve all been there.
