Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted raw cashews
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1 lb. cooked pasta
- 1 cup chopped cauliflower florets
- 1 cup cubed butternut squash
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1 chopped red bell pepper, destemmed and seeds removed
- 1 cup Wild Wonders® tomatoes
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 2 Tbsp. nutritional yeast
- 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- ½ tsp. Kosher salt
- Sliced scallions, for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Add cashews, milk, and vegetable broth to a blender and allow to sit and soak for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a large baking sheet, toss the cauliflower, butternut squash, carrots, red bell pepper, and tomatoes with the olive oil and roast for 45 minutes or until tender. Allow to cool slightly.
- Add the roasted vegetables to the blender along with the nutritional yeast, mustard, garlic powder, and Kosher salt. Blend well, about 1-2 minutes, or until the cashews are completely broken down and the mixture is smooth.
