Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a casserole dish. Add the drained green beans. Mix soymilk with soy sauce and Worchestershire sauce if using and set aside. In a skillet, saute mushrooms in 1 tablespoon of the butter until they release their liquids and start to dry out again. Add mushrooms to green beans in a casserole dish. Melt the remaining butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Whisk in flour, onion powder, and garlic powder. Cook for about 1 minute then slowly add the milk/soy sauce mixture. Stir continuously, bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer for about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Gently toss into the green bean/mushroom mixture with 2/3 of the french fried onions. Bake for 25 minutes until bubbling around the edges. Stir and top with remaining french fried onions (adding more for more crunchiness if desired). Bake for about 5 minutes more until the onions are golden.
