Vegetable Casserole (with Veg-All)

Full of tender vegetables in a rich and creamy sauce, all topped with buttery crackers, this Veg All Casserole is sure to be a family favorite. Made with pantry staples, and ready in less than 30 minutes, keep this recipe handy for a busy night.

Vegetable casserole (aka “veg all casserole”) is your garden variety casserole, but that doesn’t mean it is average, not at all. It means this veggie casserole comes through big time on the garden vegetables you know and love.

A mix of potatoes, green peas, corn, green beans, and any other veggies you wish to blend in, this is a fresh and tasty casserole.

It is as warm and comforting as any meat based casserole dish. Serve it as a side dish or even make the main course for Meatless Mondays!

The best Veg All Casserole recipe

Since this is a sour cream casserole recipe and uses cheese, it is considered vegetarian, not vegan. However, you can substitute the sour cream with vegan sour cream if you want to. You can also use different crackers that don’t contain eggs as well.

As recipes go, this one is super easy on the prep side, and most of the ingredients you add are already prepped, if you use frozen veggies for example.

Not only that it is budget friendly and by using pantry staples you can have it ready at a moments notice!

What does Veg All Contain?

A can of Veg-All contains carrots, potatoes, celery, green beans, lima beans, peas, and corn. If you plan on using a can of mixed vegetables or frozen vegetables, check to see if it contains potatoes.

I use frozen mixed vegetables for convenience, but any frozen veggies work just as well. The popular mix is budget friendly but if you like other veggies, like broccoli, cauliflower, feel free to add those in.

Do you have to thaw frozen vegetables before cooking?

You do not have to thaw the vegetables first for this recipe. You can if you want. It reduces the cooking time a bit, but then you have to wait for the thawing.

Can you freeze Mixed Vegetable Casserole?

A veg all casserole does freeze without issues depending on the type of veggies you use. Some vegetables hold up to freezing better than other.

Also, you may want to crumble fresh crackers on it when you reheat it if you want that “fresh cooked” topping.

When you freeze it, then make sure to wrap it tightly or use a lidded airtight container. Reheat in the oven for best results, but the microwave is best if you want to eat it sooner that later.

Best Casserole Tips

• If you thaw your frozen veggies first, then make sure to drain any excess liquids.
• Lightly spray your casserole dish with cooking oil to make clean up easier afterwards.
• Use Cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom, or even cream of onion soup if you like.
• When you remove the casserole from the oven, let it rest about 5-8 minutes before serving so the liquids are more fully bound up by the starches and it becomes less “soupy”.
• When it comes to the cheese topping, then cheddar cheese or Pepper Jack work great too, but any cheese that melts nicely works too. I like the mozzarella for that reason especially.
