IWON Organics snacks are made with more fiber and protein compared to other snacks, and they’re made with wholesome ingredients you can feel good about. Their mission is simple: eating well while on the run. In addition to snacks, they have a delicious, healthy line of protein cereal and granola. Their caramelized onion protein puffs are the perfect savory topping for this healthy vegan green bean casserole! I love that they add both taste and nutritional value to this dish.

To make the vegan green bean casserole, first trim and rinse the green beans.

Next, boil the green beans in salted water for 7 minutes, and drain and set aside. In the same pot, heat olive oil and add in the garlic and shallot. Cook for 5 minutes, then stir in some flour. This will help thicken the sauce.

Add the vegetable broth (or water and vegetable bouillon) and unsweetened almond milk. Boil until sauce becomes thick, then add the green beans back in.

Add some IWON Organics Caramelized Onion Protein Puffs and stir it all together. 

Add to a baking dish, top with more protein puffs and sliced almonds and bake in the oven at 400 F for 15 minutes, until bubbly. Serve this vegan green bean casserole warm from the oven!

Enjoy!!
