French Fried Onions (Gluten-Free)

Green Bean Casserole is a must for Thanksgiving dinner, some think. Your local Asian grocer may carry fried red onions (shallots), but if not, the only way to make it gluten-free is to fry your own onions. If you don't own a mandoline or v-slicer, this might be a good time to purchase one. The good news is that the rest of the ingredients are store-bought, thanks to canned french-style green beans and a vegan gluten-free mushroom soup from Imagine Foods.
