- This will also be the basic thing to use in your dish, but here we will use the vegan one. The creamy feeling will come along in your casserole if you are using this. Mixing of the components will also become better. Blend some silken tofu and use that as an alternative option for your dish.
UNSWEETENED VEGAN MILK:

ONION POWDER AND GARLIC POWDER:
- Your casserole dish will become savory when you add these to it. Also, the taste of your dish will improve with the use of garlic as well as onion powder. Fresh garlic may also be an option for your use here.
