  • Lightly grease a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a rapid boil.
  • Add green beans to the boiling water and cook for 3 minutes, or until desired tenderness. DON'T overcook - they will be mushy if you do.

  • Drain thoroughly, place in a large mixing bowl, and set aside.
  • In the meantime, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet.

  • In the same skillet, melt 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat.
  • Whisk in flour; continue to whisk for about 1 minute, or until flour mixture turns light brown.
  • Slowly pour in the soymilk and continue to whisk and cook for 4 minutes, or until thickened.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg; remove from heat.
  • Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • Stir the sauce and pour it over the green beans and mushrooms; toss to combine and coat evenly.
  • Transfer the green beans mixture to previously prepared casserole dish.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until sauce bubbles.
