Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400º F.

Step 2

Heat the oil or vegan buttery spread in a large skillet or steep-sided stir-fry pan. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until golden.

Step 3

Add the celery and broccoli along with just a bit of water to keep the pan moist. Cover and cook until the broccoli is just past tender-crisp, but still bright green.

Step 4

Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients except the toppings.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to an oiled 2-quart round or oblong casserole dish. Pat in evenly and top with wheat germ, sesame seeds, and/or paprika.

Step 6

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges become a bit crusty and the top is golden.

Step 7

Allow the casserole to stand for 5 minutes or so, then serve. Either cut into neat segments or just spoon it out. It all works and it will disappear quickly!
