Vegan Bean and Rice Casserole
This black bean, corn, and brown rice casserole is great for entertaining or to warm up a cold night. The cashew cheese sauce doesn’t require cooking—just 5 minutes in the blender.
Here, the classic beans and rice combination gets a kick with ancho chile powder and cumin. The No-Cheese Sauce adds a creamy texture, and the health benefits are bumped up with zucchini, black beans, and corn. Also, be sure to check out our “cheesy” vegan rice and bean casserole.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the onion and bell pepper in a large saucepan and sauté over medium heat for 7 to 8 minutes, or until the onion starts to brown.

Remove from the heat. Add the cooked rice, zucchini, black beans, corn, and No-Cheese Sauce, and mix well.
