It’s simple, creamy, savory and healthy because there’s veggies, right? I suspect this was one of those dishes that my mom used to sneak more greens into our diets, despite our suspicion of all things salad-like. But who can resist anything baked in a creamy sauce and topped with crispy fried onions? My mother was (is) a smart lady. I’ve been wanting to make a vegan version of this childhood classic for a while now, and the holiday season finally prompted me to do so. I’m happy to report that my attempt was a huge success and yielded a seriously delicious result. Bonus? It’s simple – just 10 ingredients and about 30 minutes from start to finish. Plus, once the green beans are boiled, it all happens in one pan! That’s my kind of side dish. The magic happens when the crispy fried onions come on the scene – crunchy, salty, and indulgent. You can make the onions from scratch, but Trader Joe’s has some that just happen to be vegan-friendly. This saves time and hassle and is totally worth it in my opinion. Look at that crunch!
