Green bean casserole is a traditional American Thanksgiving dish which seems to appear out of nowhere during the fall and winter holidays. Year-round, you'd be hard pressed to find it anywhere, but around Thanksgiving, the winter holidays and Christmas time, it's suddenly everywhere. No Thanksgiving or Christmas table would be complete without a classic green bean casserole!
This recipe is for a vegetarian and completely dairy-free and vegan version of a traditional green bean casserole, using vegan margarine and nutritional yeast in place of milk, cream, or the usual canned mushroom soup, to create a creamy and saucy vegan green bean casserole which is completely dairy-free and suitable for anyone on a vegan diet.

Recipe Variation
- Swap out the soy sauce for tamari or gluten-free nama shoyu, and be sure that the vegetable broth you are using is gluten free as well (some are and some aren't). And finally, you'll need to make sure you use a gluten-free flour in place of regular white flour, or, try using cornstarch as a thickener.
