Vegan Broccoli Mac and Cheese

Vegan Broccoli Mac and Cheese
Yields10 Servings

Directions

1

Soak the cashews for at least 1 hour to soften enough to blend.

2

Cook pasta according to package directions. 2 minutes before done, add in all the broccoli florets. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain pasta and broccoli.

3

Drain the cashews and place in blender along with water, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and spices. Blend until nice and smooth. Add water to the "cheese" sauce for a runnier consistency.

4

Add the "cheese" sauce to the pasta and broccoli. Mix well. I like to add the pasta water to create a creamier consistency (I use about 1 cup of the pasta water). Enjoy warm!
