This healthy green bean casserole recipe is all about bringing fresh flavors and wholesome ingredients together, so let’s break it down. Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and cut in half
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (low sodium) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup crispy fried onions (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
- First up, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large pot, bring some water to a boil. Blanch the green beans for about 3-4 minutes until they’re bright green and tender. Drain them and set aside.
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Toss in the diced onion, and sauté until it’s soft and translucent, around 5 minutes.
- Add in the garlic and mushrooms and keep cooking until the mushrooms are tender, about 3-4 minutes more.
- Now, it’s time to mix it all together! In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with the green beans, cream of mushroom soup, vegetable broth, soy sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer everything into a greased casserole dish and smooth it out. If you like a little crunch, sprinkle some crispy fried onions on top.
- Pop that dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until it’s bubbly and slightly golden on top.
When it’s ready, take it out and let it cool for a few minutes. Then serve it up hot and enjoy! This Green Bean Casserole is not just a side dish; it’s a heartfelt addition to any meal that brings everyone together. So go ahead, make this beauty and watch it disappear!
